No Bake Smores Cheesecake Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Combine the sugar and 6 ounces (12 sheets) graham crackers to a food processor and pulse to fine crumbs. Drizzle in the butter and pulse until the crumbs are completely coated and moistened. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
• Sprinkle the powdered gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small microwave-safe bowl and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Microwave the gelatin in 15-second intervals, stirring or whisking vigorously in between each, until the mixture is very hot and the gelatin has completely dissolved, about 45 seconds total. Allow to cool completely to room temperature.
• Combine the cream cheese, marshmallow creme and a pinch of salt to a large bowl, then use an electric mixer to blend until completely smooth. Add the cooled gelatin mixture and blend until thoroughly combined. Pour into the prepared crust, smoothing out the top with a rubber spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely set, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• Remove the plastic wrap and place the cheesecake on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Run a small offset spatula or paring knife around the edges of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan, then open the pan's clasp and remove the outer ring. Use the off-set spatula or the back of the paring knife to smooth out the sides of the cheesecake.
• Break 2 chocolate bars into small pieces and add to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15 second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted, about 1 minute total. Drizzle the chocolate back and forth over the top of the cheesecake with a spoon, then place back in the refrigerator until the chocolate has hardened, about 20 minutes.
• Pile the marshmallows on top of the cheesecake. Use a kitchen torch to toast the marshmallows, then break up the remaining graham crackers and chocolate bar into large pieces and stand the pieces up in the marshmallows.
• Allow the cheesecake to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes (so the marshmallows aren't super gooey when you cut into it), then slice and serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the graham cracker crust: Place the crackers and sugar in a food processor and pulse to break up the crackers, then process continuously until the crackers are crushed into fine crumbs, about 30 seconds.
• Mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together with a rubber spatula until combined. (The mixture will be thick.)
• Spray a 7-inch springform pan with baking spray and line with parchment paper.
• Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of springform pan. Use the bottom of a drinking glass or flat measuring cup to press the crumbs into the sides and bottom of the pan, making it as uniform and compact as possible. (The crust will be thick.)
• For the frozen chocolate cheesecake: Put the cream cheese into the bowl of a stand mixer with fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix the cream cheese for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Slowly add the sweetened condensed milk and continue to mix on medium-high speed for about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides with a spatula and then continue to mix for another minute. Turn off the mixer and add in the cocoa powder and confectioners' sugar.
• Turn on the mixer starting on low, then increase the speed to medium-high and mix until incorporated, about 1 minute.
• Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and fold in the whipped topping by hand.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours or up to overnight. (If chilling overnight, remove the cheesecake from the freezer after 1 hour and cover with plastic wrap, then return to the freezer.)
• When ready to serve, preheat the broiler. Remove the cheesecake from the freezer and run a sharp paring knife between edge of the springform pan and the graham cracker crust. Open the clasp on the pan and press up from the bottom, allowing the external ring to fall free of the bottom.
• Place the cheesecake on a baking sheet and cover with marshmallows, allowing them to pile up and be stacked highest in the middle.
• Place the cheesecake in the broiler and let broil until the marshmallows start to brown and melt together, 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully transfer the cheesecake to a serving plate. Sprinkle the cheesecake with the remaining graham cracker crumbs, if desired. Serve immediately.
