4 Ingredient Mini No Bake Cheesecake Flag
This easy 4-ingredient No Bake Cheesecake Flag is perfectly individual portioned mini pies and a healthier version of your favorite cheesecakes. They are a wonderful light treat or snack that you can whip up in a flash.
This is a perfect beginner recipe for getting kids in the kitchen and the Cheesecake American flag is a great way to impress friends without all the effort.
It’s such an easy dessert centerpiece that doesn’t take much time to put together AND can feed a crowd! And because they are made with Greek yogurt no one has to feel bad about having 2.
These No Bake Cheesecakes literally take less than 10 minutes to make for each batch and about 30 minutes to make all 48 cheesecakes!
Ingredients needed:
- Greek yogurt
- cream cheese
- mini graham cracker crusts
- toppings of your choice (see topping options below)
How to make no bake cheesecake flag?
- Beat room temperature cream cheese until smooth and fluffy in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer. Scrape the bowl.
- Add your choice of flavored yogurt and beat until well combined.
- Fill mini pie crusts with cheesecake filling.
- Top with your choice of toppings.
- Arrange mini cheesecakes with the blue decorated ones in a square in the upper left, and create stripes with the white and red decorated ones
Tips for making this
How long will they keep for?
These are best made and served the same day. These will keep for about 1-2 days but the longer they sit the soggier the crust becomes. Store the cheesecakes covered with plastic wrap or in a container in the fridge.
Easy hack for measuring filling
To get really even servings I used an ice cream scoop to distribute the cheesecake filling into the graham cracker crusts. It made it really easy to keep them fairly even.
It’s my favorite tip whenever I need to evenly measure out a filling. It’s how I fill my muffin tins for cupcakes or muffins!
What toppings are good with no bake cheesecakes?
- If you like crunch, add chopped nuts, chopped banana chips or toasted coconut.
- Fresh fruit gives a nice and light feel to the cheesecake. All of the berries work well, but fruits like bananas and pears that turn brown and oxidize when exposed to the air should be avoided. Choose their dried counterparts if you really want to use them.
- If you wanted to make it fancier you could do something like a dollop of whipped cream with fruit on top and drizzle it all in chocolate, caramel, or butterscotch syrup.
- Use a homemade fruit sauce topped with whipped cream
Really the possibilities are limited only by the kind of yogurts you can find! I’m already thinking about Pina Colada Cheesecakes and Key Lime Pie Cheesecakes.
