No Bake desserts are so easy to whip up and this recipe for No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake Pie is delicious!
No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake pie is so light and fluffy, a perfect summertime or Valentine Day dessert. The sweet, fresh strawberry layer makes this pie impressively decorative. If you like no bake desserts be sure to try my No Bake Triple Layer Pumpkin Pie as well.
This recipe makes an incredibly high pie. If you prefer the recipe can be easily adapted to make 2 pies or even individual tarts. Make your own homemade graham crust or use your preference for pre-made store bought crusts.
When preparing this recipe be sure the cream cheese is at room temperature or you will have undesirable lumps in your pie. I prepared the strawberry jello the night before, then whipped up the pie in the morning so it was set for after dinner dessert. To get the beautiful strawberry layer, simply place fresh strawberries on bottom of pie crust, then top with strawberry filling.
To fill pie start by spreading a portion of filling to cover strawberries completely Use a spatula to press filling in all the spaces between strawberries to ensure the are no empty pockets in the pie.

Mary Ellen says
April 4, 2017 at 6:00 pmI’m not a real fan of whipped toppings such as Cool Whip. Could real whipped cream be substituted and would it hold up if made the night before or be better made as directed and finished the day of?
Thanks!
Laureen King says
April 5, 2017 at 11:20 amcool whip is quiet stable thus the pie holds together. To use real whipped cream you would have to stabilize it somehow and try.
Bnhrsuv says
June 20, 2017 at 8:07 pmYou could use plain gelataio to stablise the whipping cream also sweetening the whipping cream with powdered sugar also helps stabilize because of the cornstarch in the powdered sugar…
Heather says
August 2, 2017 at 9:46 amUse gelatin in the whipping cream to stabilize it. You can buy gelatin in your local grocers.
Barb Shiffer says
April 9, 2017 at 1:44 pmMade this with sugar free jello and put in individual tart shells made with almond flour…. used real whipped cream stabilized with Dr Oetker’s Whip It stabilizer….no extra sugar…. low carb dessert!
Laureen King says
April 14, 2017 at 7:53 amI’ll have to try the Dr Oetker stabilizer with real whipped cream next time. Thanks for the tip Barb.
Linda says
April 14, 2017 at 6:34 pmBought all ingredients to make the pie- so 4 cups of cool whip is 4 containers , right??
Laureen King says
April 15, 2017 at 8:58 amHi Linda, there are different size containers of cool whip, so you have to measure by the cup
Mariel says
April 18, 2017 at 6:42 pmHow did you make it into a dome?
Laureen King says
April 18, 2017 at 6:46 pmHi Mariel, the filling is quite thick and hold together well, I just used a spatula to build it up.
Rosie says
April 25, 2017 at 8:15 pmI made two tonight. Mine wasn’t as thick but the filling taste amazing. Does it thicken while in the the fridge for 6 hrs?? Thank you for the recipe:)
Laureen King says
April 25, 2017 at 9:23 pmHi Rosie, it should thicken more in the fridge. Enjoy!
Kat says
May 11, 2017 at 8:45 pmThis is really good, I made it as a salad with sliced fresh berries added with the whipped topping. I used sugar free jello, Neufchatel cream cheese and light store brand Whipped Topping and it was not thick enough to mound as high as yours did with regular ingredients, but it is delicious and the perfect thickness for a salad. I think this was mostly because the light generic Whipped Topping was more airy and not the same stable consistency of Cool Whip, I would not use it again (from a nationwide Supercenter store). Also, the sliced berries may have added extra liquid and the light cream cheese may not have added as much thickening. If making this for company, I would make it as your recipe is written and probably make 2 pies, it makes a lot! I will make my lightened version over and over. Thanks for posting the recipe.
Laureen King says
May 12, 2017 at 10:46 amHi Kat, looks like you did a great job of adapting the recipe. So glad you enjoyed it.
Rhea Lövström says
May 18, 2017 at 3:28 pmHi. Can I use whipped fresh cream instead of cool whip?
Laureen King says
May 18, 2017 at 5:51 pmHi Rhea, fresh whipped cream won’t hold up enough for this pie and it will get runny.
Donna McGregor says
May 30, 2017 at 4:22 pmYour list of ingredients does not list Strawberry Jello. The pie was very good.
Laureen King says
May 30, 2017 at 7:54 pmHi Donna, it is the 1st thing on the ingredient list. So glad you enjoyed the recipe
Linda says
May 1, 2018 at 9:51 amI have instant strawberry Jell-O pudding will that work
Laureen King says
May 1, 2018 at 4:50 pmHi Linda, strawberry pudding won’t work, it must be jello (gelatine)

June 19, 2017 at 6:51 pmGreat summer treat easy to make and light and yummy.
Laurie says
November 16, 2017 at 11:52 amI love strawberries. But this time of year they are very bland tasting. So I think i’m going to try raspberries 🙂
Laureen King says
November 17, 2017 at 6:26 pmraspberries would be very tasty!
Patty says
September 7, 2018 at 10:40 pmDo you know how many individual 2 oz portions this will make?
Laureen King says
September 10, 2018 at 6:38 pmHi Patty, I have no idea, I’ve never weighed a slice. Sorry couldn’t help you with this.
Aasha says
October 11, 2018 at 6:54 pmso the set Jello is mixed to the cream cheese? im going to make this for a baby shower party today.
Laureen King says
October 11, 2018 at 8:00 pmAasha, yes the set jello is mixed into the cream cheese. Make sure the jello is set! Also be sure to leave plenty of time, at least 6 hours for pie to set. Enjoy!
