See my other post from today for this yummy pie crust!
No Bake Cheesecake Ingredients:
12 oz cream cheese (I used the soft in a little tub) (softened)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup Cool Whip (just barely thawed - not runny)
(I'm sure you could also use homemade whipped cream
out of heavy whipping cream if you want a completely natural
alternative, or if you just don't have Cool Whip on hand)
1 tsp vanilla
THAT'S IT! Beat it until well blended for a few minutes, scrape into a cooled crust, stick in the fridge covered for a couple of hours, and top it with whatever you want. I actually drizzled it with some caramel & at times ate it plain. It really is perfect plain :)
This is ALSO anti-migraine (containing no typical trigger foods or additives). Be careful what you top it with if you must top it. Newsflash: Citrus is not your friend if you suffer from migraines! And the "other" easy no-bake cheesecake recipe circulating out there calls for lemon juice. Take my word for it...the recipe doesn't work without the lemon juice. The lemon juice is what causes the cheesecake to "set up" so mine was a runny mess.
For you migraine sufferers:
Acceptable fruit toppings (if you must have fruit topping)—Fresh strawberries, apples, pears, grapes, peaches, nectarines, blueberries, kiwi, apricots, blackberries, cherries, cantaloupes, mangoes, honeydew melon and watermelon.
What fruit toppings to avoid—Bananas, oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, tangerines, pineapples, clementines, raspberries, plums, papayas, & passion fruit.
Disclaimer: The information above is not to be substituted for common sense and/or your doctor's advice and/or your own experience with trigger foods. My information comes from my own online research as well as my own recent experience avoiding nearly everything good on the planet because it triggers a migraine in me. Do what works for you!
