No Bake Lemon Cheesecake is one of those recipes you are going to fall in love with because it’s out of this world yummy and because it’s the easiest thing in the world to make! I’m pretty sure you need it for Easter dinner!
Have you ever stressed out about the thought of baking a cheesecake? Maybe you talked yourself right out of it because you either didn’t have time, were scared of ending up with cracks on the top of your cheesecake, or maybe you heard it was difficult to master and decided to not even try it!
Baked cheesecakes can be a little bit tricky, but no bake cheesecakes…if you can make instant pudding you’ve got this! This recipe will make you feel like a rock star in about 5 minutes or less! Guest’s will beg you for the recipe!
No Bake Lemon Cheesecake only uses 7 ingredients total, including the premade crust! I bet you can whip it together from start to finish in about 5 minutes if you hussle, and I like to hussle! Of course you have a little chilling time after that but I’m not counting it because you can do laundry while it chills right?
here’s a peek at what’s been happening on the farm
The other day the boys went out to take care of their goats, which really are more like pets than farm animals. They are just fun for the kids and as an added bonus they eat the weeds around here which seem to be plentiful!
When Branson got to the pen he noticed that they had a brand new baby goat! We think the goat was a little premature because it was tiny and because the mamma goat didn’t have any milk. Yes, my boys know all about how those kinds of things work!
The goat is growing like crazy and the kids fell in love with it! Payson brought the goat to the lawn the other day so it could learn all about playing tackle football, and to have rides in Payson’s toy dump truck. How fun is that! If you want to follow along with our crazy farm life be sure to follow me on instagram!

July 13, 2019 at 10:48 amI have to have. GF crust and will make my own. It has to be pre-baked correct?
Amy Engberson says
July 16, 2019 at 6:50 pmDepending on the crust recipe you use it may need to be prebaked. Whenever I make a homemade crumb crust I mix the ingredients together, press in the pan, and microwave for about 30 seconds to “set” the crust and help keep it from crumbling. It will still be fine if you don’t bake, or microwave the crust first if you want though. I hope that answered your question!
