Decorating Your No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake

I made this recipe with Memorial Day in mind. After it finished chilling in the fridge, I decorated it with strawberries and blueberries, to give it a patriotic feel.

I think patriotic no-bake desserts are so much fun! They get me excited about celebrating our great country with friends and family. Plus, who doesn’t like a good strawberry cheesecake?

Some of our favorite patriotic recipes to make are American Flag Toast and Patriotic Edible Cookie Dough. If you’re looking to get crafty, try our tutorial for DIY American Flag Vases (made from tin cans) or get your kids in on the fun and whip up a batch of Red, White, and Blue Play Dough.

NILLA Wafer Cheesecake Crust

This no-bake strawberry cheesecake recipe is special because I made the crust out of NILLA Wafers. NILLA Wafers and Lemon NILLA Wafers are a great, quick, no-bake solution for the hot summer months. I made the cheesecake crust by blending up NILLA Wafers in my food processor until they were a fine crumb. Then, I blended in melted butter. I didn’t add any extra sugar to the strawberry cheesecake crust because the NILLA Wafers already have a nice sweetness to them.

NILLA Wafers and Lemon NILLA Wafers are the perfect solutions for no-bake summer desserts. You can find many more no-bake dessert recipes on their website. You can purchase them at Walmart.
