No-Bake Cheesecake

Instructions:

  1. Make the crust:
    • In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and sugar.
    • Stir in the melted butter until well combined.
    • Press the mixture into the bottom of a pie dish or springform pan to form a crust. Use the back of a spoon to pack it down tightly.
    • Refrigerate the crust for about 30 minutes to set.
  2. Prepare the filling:
    • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
    • In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
    • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
    • If desired, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture.
  3. Assemble the cheesecake:
    • Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the prepared graham cracker crust.
    • Smooth the top with a spatula.
  4. Chill:
    • Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best results.
