Ingredients Needed for No Bake Cheesecake Bites
You will need the following ingredients listed below to make this no bake dessert (the exact measurements, nutrition information and full recipe are all in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post).
- Cream Cheese – It’s best to use block cream cheese. I don’t recommend using light or fat free. Let it soften for 30 minutes to help avoid lumps.
- Powdered Sugar
- Cream – Use full-fat heavy whipping cream.
- Graham Cracker Crumbs – I put the graham cracker crumbs in a ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin. It’s a good stress reliever too!
- Butter
- Toppings – I am using blueberries, but you can use your favorite. Why not make an assortment of toppings to give guests an option?
KITCHEN TOOLS
- Baking Spatula
- Mixer – my Kitchen Aid Mixer is going strong after many (many) years.
- Muffin Tin – this recipe makes 12 cheesecake bites
How to Make No Bake Cheesecake Bites
Step 1. Prepare the Crust
Mix the graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar, and melted butter in a mixing bowl until the mixture looks like wet sand.
Step 2. Fill the Muffin Tins
Line a muffin tray with cupcake liners. Place 2 tablespoons of the crumb mixture into each liner, pressing it down using the back of a spoon.
Place the tray in the refrigerator to set while you make the filling.
Step 3. Prepare the Cheesecake Mixture
Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the room temperature cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy on medium speed.
In another bowl, whip cold heavy cream using a whisk until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Step 4. Chill the Cheesecake Mixture
Use a cookie scoop to place two scoops of the mixture into each muffin tin.
Chill them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow them to set. For best results cover with saran wrap and place them back in the refrigerator a minimum of 4 hours.
Once they are set, top them with your favorite cheesecake topping and enjoy. You can also enjoy them plain if you like. They are rich and creamy and delicious on their own!
I made a fresh blueberry sauce with a bit of sugar and cornstarch to thicken it. I’m thinking of apple caramel cheesecake bites for the fall!

How to Store Mini Cheesecake Bites
Refrigerate: After the mini cheesecakes have set, transfer them to an airtight container or cover the muffin pan securely with plastic wrap. Keep them chilled in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
Best Enjoyed Within: While they can last up to 3–4 days in the refrigerator, they’re at their creamiest and most delicious if eaten within 2–3 days.
Freezer-Friendly: For longer storage, freeze the cheesecake bites on a baking sheet until firm. Then move them to a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag, squeezing out excess air. Don’t forget to date the container! They’ll keep well for 1–2 months. When you’re ready to serve, let them thaw overnight in the fridge.
