Two things I enjoy are easy desserts and anything with coffee in the title. When you put these two together, what do you get? {No Bake} Creamy Coffee Cheesecake…enough said.
Well, okay, let me describe it to you a little more – graham cracker crust topped with a smooth coffee cheesecake layer covered with a layer of chocolate ganache finished off with a layer of COOL WHIP Whipped Topping and a sprinkling of chocolate chips. Dessert heaven.
Some of the best desserts are quick and easy and you can put this one together in no time. The fact that you store it in the freezer is another bonus – I love make ahead desserts that are ready for my everyday chaotic schedule. My husband likes to enjoy a sweet treat every evening and this was a hit at our house. It’s creamy and refreshing with just the right amount of everything.

Ummmm is this still in your freezer?! Because if it is I’m coming over right now 😉
Okay, my boyfriend and I eat a disgusting amount of cheesecake and I am surprised we are still mobile and aren’t forced to roll everywhere like giant balls of cheesecake people. And I have never thought about making a no-bake cheesecake because, well, I am perpetually in a sugar coma and don’t think of obviously genius things like no-bake cheesecakes. This looks SO SIMPLE compared to the whole normal cheesecake process. I can’t wait to try it with my man!
Sounds amazing! Pinning.
Can’t decide which appealed to me more: the coffee part or the no-bake part! Looks yummy!
Perfect for making when it’s hot out! I love it! Yum!!

What kind of cream do u use??
This recipe calls for Cool Whip, which is a frozen whipped topping. I haven’t tried it with homemade whipped cream.
