Strawberry No-Bake Cheesecake is the perfect way to showcase delicious, fresh strawberries! A sweet and crunchy coconut crust is paired with a smooth, creamy no-bake cheesecake and gorgeous red strawberries – the perfect early summer dessert.
The crust is made from coconut cookies that I picked up on sale this week at our grocery store and white chocolate bars. The cheesecake filling is mascarpone cheese. I had to visit three separate grocery stores to find it! I live in a very small town and our cheese selection at our local grocery store consists only of cheddar and mozzarella.
The crust was sweet, but the cheesecake filling wasn’t too sweet so it was a nice balance. The juicy, fresh strawberries added a nice touch of color and sweetness to make this cheesecake a dessert worth the extra trips to the store!
