THE BEST NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE
Who doesn't love a dessert that can be made without turning on the oven? This no-bake cheesecake is light and fluffy, thanks to the whipped cream that gets folded into the cream-cheese mixture. Have no fear--it will have the signature creamy, tangy flavor of the classic.

Steps:
- For the crust: Add the graham crackers, brown sugar and salt to a food processor and pulse to fine crumbs. Drizzle in the butter and pulse until the crumbs are completely coated with the butter.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and about 1 1/2 inches up the sides of a 10-inch springform pan, with a 1/4-inch thick rim around the border. (Use the bottom of a measuring cup to help make the crust even on the sides and bottom.) Freeze until firm, about 20 minutes.
- For the filling: Meanwhile, whip 3/4 cup of the cream in a medium bowl with a whisk until stiff, fluffy peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes (or 1 to 2 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed); set aside.
- Beat the cream cheese and 1 cup granulated sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the speed to medium-low and add the lemon juice, sour cream and vanilla-bean paste and beat until just combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream-cheese mixture with a large rubber spatula.
- Pour the batter into the springform pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula. Cover tightly and refrigerate until set, 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
- Just before serving, add the remaining 3/4 cup cream and 1/4 cup granulated sugar to a medium bowl and whip to soft peaks with a whisk, 3 to 4 minutes (or 1 to 2 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed). Spoon the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
- Run a knife around the inside edge of the springform pan to loosen the cake, then open the clasps to release the pan ring. Pipe dollops of whipped cream around the border of the cheesecake and top with fresh berries.
JAPANESE CHEESECAKE
This Japanese version of the crowd-pleasing dessert combines cheesecake flavor with a souffle-like, cakey texture that jiggles like jelly but tastes fresh and airy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment. Place a 3 1/2-inch-wide strip of parchment around the inside of the pan so that it comes up about 1 inch higher than the edge; set aside.
- Heat the cream cheese, milk and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk together the vanilla, egg yolks and lemon juice in a large bowl until smooth. Pour the cooled milk mixture into the yolk mixture and whisk until smooth and combined. Whisk in the flour and cornstarch until combined; set aside.
- Beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the granulated sugar and continue beating on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes longer.
- Gently fold the egg white mixture into the yolk mixture in 3 batches, making sure not to overmix (you want the whites to stay as fluffy as possible). As soon as the white streaks disappear from the batter, pour it into the prepared pan.
- Place the cake pan inside of a larger pan and pour enough hot water into the larger pan so that it comes 1 inch up the sides of the cake pan. Bake for 30 minutes, then reduce the oven to 250 degrees F and continue baking until the cake is doubled in size, golden brown on top and around the edges and jiggly in the center but set, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Let the cake cool for 10 minutes. Carefully invert the cake onto your dominant hand (right onto your palm--this is the most gentle way to handle it), then invert it back onto a cake stand or plate so that the top is facing up. Sprinkle the entire top with confectioners' sugar and serve while still warm.
LIGHT & FLUFFY CHEESECAKE
Be warned - just because it's "Light" doesn't mean it's healthy! This is my mother's recipe that I grew up on, but I don't know where it came from. It may look like a lot of steps, but it's still easy and of course worth it. Everybody loves it. I like it a lot better than the dense real stuff. Hope you enjoy it too.

Steps:
- 1. Pour evaporated milk into mixing bowl and set it in the freezer for about 30-40 minutes, until ice crystals form around the edge.
- 2. While you wait for that to freeze up, dissolve the jello in the boiling water, and let cool to room temperature, just on the counter is fine.
- 3. Crush graham crackers, and mix with butter, the 2 Tbsp sugar, and cinnamon to form a loose crust mixture.
- 4. Mix the cream cheese, 1 cup sugar, and vanilla until it is soft.
- 5. By the time you've done the other steps, the evaporated milk ought to be close to done enough. Take it out of the freezer and whip it until it's the consistency of whipped cream/CoolWhip and will stand in peaks.
- 6. Add the cream cheese mixture and mix. Add the cooled jello last and mix again until just blended.
- 7. In a 9"x13"x2" pan, place 1/2 to 2/3 of the crumb mixture, and press it down. Pour the stuff you've been mixing up on top of that, then top with the rest of the crumbs.
- 8. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, but longer is better, even overnight. Then cut up in pieces and serve!
LIGHT AND AIRY CHEESECAKE
I love cheesecake but sometimes it can be too rich and too sweet. When growing up in Puerto Rico, I remember enjoying a very light textured baked cheesecake from a local bakery. This is my version of that cheesecake. While not exactly the same, it is light, fluffy, and delicious. Serve with a light fruit syrup to take it over the top!

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap the exterior of an 8-inch springform pan with aluminum foil, then spray the interior with cooking spray. Spread the vanilla wafer crumbs over the bottom and sides of the pan, pressing firmly to adhere.
- Cream together the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the cream cheese, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Add the cream of tartar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
- Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the cream cheese mixture . Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated. Add the remaining egg whites, folding just until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place springform pan on towel, inside roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes. The cheesecake is ready when the edges have nicely puffed and the surface of the cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken. Turn off the oven, and allow the cheesecake to rest in the oven for 1 hour before placing into the refrigerator, and cooling 4 hours to overnight.

FLUFFY CHEESECAKE
This chesse cake uses beaten egg whites to make it light and fluffy. I use a 9 inch round springform cake pan. Note that if you use the same type pan, all of the batter will not fit and you'll end up with a little extra.

Steps:
- In a bowl combine the crushed wafer cookie with melted butter, then set aside 3/4 cup for the top of the dessert.
- Press the remaining crumbs into a 13 x 9-inch pan, then chill for about 20-30 minutes (this will firm up the crust to allow the pie filling to be easily spread on the crust).
- After the chilling time carefully spread the pie filling over the chilled crust.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl combine the marshmallows with orange juice; microwave on HIGH for about 1 to 1-1/2 minutes, stirring once until smooth.

FLUFFY PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE
This is my adaptation of a Better Homes & Gardens recipe for New York Style Cheesecake-- only my version makes the ENTIRE thing pumpkin, and is much lighter and fluffier. I think my methodology is easier too and it came out utterly divine. It calls for using an entire 28-oz can of canned pumpkin so you don't have to worry about leftover pumpkin (though as a pumpkin lover who gets frustrated that canned pumpkin is only available in stores in the fall, "leftover pumpkin" is a foreign phrase in this house. :) ) This is also a correction-- I had it down for 15 oz, it really IS 28 oz. I also corrected the crust instructions-- start with 1/4 cup milk, and if you can't run the beater through the crust, add more. I usually use 2% milk, but vanilla or pumpkin pie soymilk will add to it awesomely. :D I used three 8-oz bricks of store-brand cream cheese. (It was almost $2 cheaper than Kraft Philadelphia.) You can probably also use a tub of whipped cream cheese or Tofutti and it'd come out just as good. This is an awesome and delicious dessert to have year-round, but makes a really nice fall and early winter party cake and is a rich and tasty alternative to traditional pumpkin pie.

Steps:
- Set aside all of your tools and ingredients for the 3 components-- which is why the ingredients are listed the way they are-- the crust, filling, and second layer glaze. (BTW, preparing the canned pumpkin gets it own step in #2) The glaze isn't like a frosting or some optional thing, you NEED to have this glaze on or the cheesecake won't have its fluffiness nor will it set right. You need at least 3 mixing bowls, two medium and one very large. You will also need an electric mixer (unless you have the strength of the Hulk to whisk all that cream cheese), a 10" pie pan, and a rubber scraper to get all of the mixtures out of their bowls.
- Prepare the pumpkin by measuring out 1/2 cup to use for the crust, and measure out 1/3 cup to use for the glaze-- the entire remainder of the 15-oz can (which should be just a little over 1 cup) is going to be used in the main cheesecake filling.
- Make the CRUST: Put 1/2 cup pumpkin, 4 tbsp butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 egg, 1 1/4 cups flour, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp nutmeg into a medium or large mixing bowl. Beat well with the electric mixer and put it in an ungreased 10" pie pan, be sure to use the rubber scraper to get plenty on the sides of the pain and doesn't sink all the way to the bottom.
- Bake the crust at 350 for 10 minutes and then let it cool for 10-15 minutes.
- As the crust bakes then cools, make your GLAZE: Mix 1/3 cup pumpkin, 1 cup plain yogurt, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp nutmeg. Beat softly in a medium sized mixing bowl, it should look like a bowl of orange yogurt. Cover the glaze and put in the fridge to chill for now.
- Get your large mixing bowl ready for all the ingredients for the FILLING: the remainder of the canned pumpkin, the cream cheese, 3 eggs, 1 tbsp vanilla, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1/4 cup flour, 1 1/4 cups sugar, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1 1/2 tsp nutmeg. Beat slowly then quickly, until the mixture is completely smooth and melded.
- Raise the temperature to 450 (after the pan with the crust has been pulled out and I imagine it's cooled off for a while now.).
- Carefully pour the FILLING into the pan with the baked crust. When the temperature is done rising, put the pan back in the oven to bake at 450. Bake for 10 minutes.
- When the 10 minutes are up, lower the temperature to 300 and bake for 35 minutes.
- When the 35 minutes are up, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Take out your GLAZE and carefully spread it on the top of the cheesecake until there is none left. Bake for another 15 minutes at 300.
- When the 15 minutes are up, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
- Cover the pan with foil and let it chill in the fridge for at least 4-6 hours before eating so the glaze can set.
