No Bake Mini Peanut Butter Cheesecakes
Happy National Cheesecake Day! Oh, and Happy Birthday to Jorge! Funny how those two wonderful events coincide every year. Jorge has always been a big peanut butter fan and I knew he would enjoy this spin on the traditional cheesecake.
This recipe was another great opportunity for me to partner with PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese. I mean, it is National Cheesecake Day! I use PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese for many reasons, but the most important reason is quality. PHILADELPHIA has been around since 1872 and uses all real fresh ingredients in their cream cheese. It’s all real, fresh, local milk from farms nearby the creameries and is made into cream cheese in just six days. You will find ZERO preservatives in the Original PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese variety!
However, I have to be honest, the best part about these mini cheesecakes? They are no bake! No heating up the oven or stove…you just whip them up and let them chill for a few hours. Cheesecake has never been easier. 😉
In a food processor, pulse the Peanut Butter Crunch Cereal until finely crushed. Add butter and pulse until well combined and when you pinch the mixture together, it holds well. Divide crust evenly and press the mixture in the bottom of each mini mason jar. Refrigerate until ready to fill. In a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese and peanut butter until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and keep mixing it for another minute or so or until you have a smooth batter. Divide the batter among the mini mason cars, cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. When ready to serve, top with a scoop of marshmallow fluff and serve!No Bake Mini Peanut Butter Cheesecakes

This year I am happy to be an ambassador for PHILADELPHIA. While I have been compensated for my time, my opinions are my own.
I’ve never made a no-bake cheesecake and clearly I need to change that! Especially since this one involves peanut butter 🙂
ahhhhh, this looks so good! you can’t beat a good no bake cheesecake!
Why didn’t I ever think to use cereal as a cheesecake crust! Oh, this is splendid. Come to me, my darling peanut butter cheesecake.
I made these yesterday for my kids and they loved them! I loved not having to turn on the oven. 😉 Thanks for another easy recipe!
I love that these are served in mini mason jars. It just makes it so much cuter! Plus, I love that they are no-bake!
You can never ever go wrong with cheesecake…especially when it is LOADED with peanut butter! Love these!
My father has worked for Philadelphia for years. I love seeing you partner up with them! They are a wonderful company!
I just love the flavor combo of this! And the use of cereal? YES!
I tried these out tonight on my family and they turned out delicious. Thanks!!
I LOVE these! Because I’m following the Trim Healthy Mama way of eating, I skipped the “crust” and made them with some Truvia I ground up in my coffee grinder to make it powdered. (had to cut it WAY back cuz it was super sweet…). I’ve made it twice – using crunchy all natural peanut butter both times. Oh. My. Goodness! Thank you!!!!!
