No-Bake Funfetti Cheesecake

Step 1

Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lightly greasing the edges of the pan with cooking spray, and then wiping gently with a paper towel. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Grind the cookies into a fine crumb using a food processor or blender.

Step 3

In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds. Pour the melted butter over the cookie crumbs and stir until the crumbs are well coated.

Step 4

Pour the crumbs into your springform pan and press firmly into the bottom and up on the sides to create a thick crust. Refrigerate the crust while you are preparing the filling.

Step 5

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and 4 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream. Microwave at 50% power in 30-second increments, stirring each time until the chocolate is melted. Stir until completely smooth.

Step 6

Place the mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes to chill.

Step 7

Pour 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until the cream starts to thicken.

Step 8

Slowly add 1/2 cup of cake mix and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set the whipped cream aside.

Step 9

Beat the softened cream cheese until it’s completely smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Step 10

Next add the granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of cake mix, vanilla, and almond extract, and continue beating until smooth.

Step 11

Next add the melted chocolate, beating until it’s completely mixed into the cream cheese.

Step 12

Finally, slowly fold in the whipped cream and sprinkles in two batches until it’s completely smooth.

Step 13

Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading evenly.

Step 14

Refrigerate for 3-4 hours minimum.

Step 15

Prepare another batch of whipped cream by placing your bowl in the freezer for 5-10 minutes.

Step 16

To prepare the whipped cream, pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until the cream starts to thicken.

Step 17

Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form.

Step 18

Pipe the borders of the pie with whipped cream using a large open star tip.

Step 19

Garnish with fresh fruit.
