To make this mouthwatering No-Bake Woolworth Icebox Cheesecake, you’ll need the following ingredients:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups heavy cream
Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Note: If you prefer a chocolate crust, you can substitute the graham cracker crumbs with crushed chocolate cookies.
Step-by-Step Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the cheesecake to set.
When ready to serve, remove the sides of the springform pan. Garnish with fresh berries if desired.
Pro Tip: For a neater presentation, run a knife around the edges of the cheesecake before removing the sides of the springform pan.
