Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your No Bake Orange Creamsicle Cheesecake:
1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the Crust: Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Use the back of a measuring cup to ensure it’s compact and even. Set aside.
3. Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue mixing until well incorporated.
4. Add Flavor: Mix in the vanilla extract, orange zest, and fresh orange juice. Beat until everything is well combined and creamy.
5. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Then, gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
6. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
7. Chill: Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best consistency.
8. Prepare the Topping: Before serving, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe this whipped cream over the top of the cheesecake for a beautiful finish.
9. Garnish: Optionally, top with fresh orange slices or additional orange zest for an extra touch of elegance.
