Cherry
Cheesecake
…in an ICEBOX CAKE!Â
yessssssssss
This Cherry Cheesecake Icebox Cake gets raves reviews every time that I make it. It’s light & refreshing… and you don’t have to turn on the oven at all to make it.
This recipe is easy peasy – and it is SO delicious.Â
Here’s what you need to make it:
Using a stand mixer or electric mixer, combine 2 cups of heavy cream with 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Beat until stiff. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, beat 8oz of softened cream cheese with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until creamy. Take half of the heavy cream that you’ve set aside and fold it gently into the cream cheese mixture.
Combine the 2 cups of milk & the box of vanilla pudding. Beat on high for 2 minutes.
Pit, de-stem, and cut cherries in half – about 30-40.
Grab an 8×8 baking dish and line with 4 graham crackers in a single layer, breaking/slicing as needed to fit. I’ve found that using a serrated steak knife cut cleanly without breaking into pieces.
Spread on the cream cheese mixture evenly.
Add cherries cut side down in rows on the cream cheese mixture.
Layer more graham crackers on top. Now, add pudding and spread evenly. Place one more layer of graham crackers on the pudding.
Top with whipped cream and spread evenly.
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4-6 hours).
