No-bake cheesecakes, which use gelatin to set them firm, can be a dubious affair. We set out to create an icebox cheesecake with a supple, creamy texture and great flavor, too.

  1. I love recipes like this bc my apartment gets ungodly hot in the summer, but I wish that the gelatin wasn't in the recipe. Any chance to make a recipe vegetarian or even vegan is a win, in my opinion

  2. I put a paper towel between the cheesecake and plastic wrap to keep the condensation from dripping onto the cake.

  3. It would be great to see a trashy version that substitutes the gelatin and lime juice with instant lime Jello. lol

  4. This looks great. I'm going to pie a whipped cream border around the edge of the cake, then fill it with lime curd before serving.

  5. I have a similar recipe (more cream cheese and lime juice) but the biggest difference is using ginger snaps instead of the animal crackers, and not baking the crust. The ginger snaps actually add to the flavor instead of being rather bland.

  6. I'm glad to see this, because my ancient icebox cheesecake incorporated egg whites, so I haven't felt able to make it since the safety of eggs got so dicey!

  7. You can buy bottled Key lime juice if fresh Key limes are not available. Persian limes are completely DIFFERENT from Key limes. The flavours are not the same at all.

  8. Don't wanna be nitpicky, but if you need to bake the crust, it's not a "no-bake" cake. its a "little-bit-of-baking" cake 😀

  9. It makes a difference to approximate the Key lime flavor to use ripe limes rather than than darker green ones [what I call “bar” limes].

  10. I thought it was against usda regulations to make a refrigerator dessert without a can of sweetened condensed milk….this is fantastic!

  11. Do you recommend any gelatin substitutes for veggy-tarians? There ARE key lime pie recipes without gelatin, why not your cheese cake? (I was born in Florida – key limes are part of my heritage.)

  12. My mother made this since I was kid in the 60's, straight out of the original Betty Crocker Cookbook (some great time tested recipes there!).

  13. I made it. Very little lime flavor. I even added an extra tablespoon of lime juice. I punched it up by pouring some lime juice on the individual slices at service.

  14. Why do you guys charge for the recipe? I mean I can subscribe for free for 14 days, but you still want my billing info. Recipes on YouTube are free? But I love ❤️ your channel and the taste kitchen. Bless you and have a great day. ❤

  15. I made this for a Saturday brunch and everyone LOVED it. I even threw the cubed cream cheese in the mixer like you did. It was kind of gratifying lol!! Everyone asked for the recipe so this vid is getting spread far and wide. Thanks so much Julia I love your channel!

  16. What a stellar presenter, so relaxed, so professional, wit and humor combined. Love Julia. Think I'm going to love that cheesecake too. Gotta try that!
