Ingredients

• 200 grams Gluten-Free Graham Crackers
• 100 grams Unsalted Butter
• 450 grams Cream Cheese
• 100 grams Powdered Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 240 milliliters Heavy Cream
• 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
• 150 grams Fresh Berries (optional topping)

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the base: Place the gluten-free graham crackers into a food processor and blend until they become fine crumbs.

Step 2

Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave.

Step 3

Mix the melted butter with the graham cracker crumbs until well combined.

Step 4

Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix until well incorporated.

Step 7

Gently fold in the lemon juice.

Step 8

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until it reaches stiff peaks.

Step 9

Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined, ensuring not to deflate the whipped cream.

Step 10

Remove the crust from the refrigerator and pour the cream cheese filling onto the crust. Spread the filling evenly with a spatula.

Step 11

Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For best results, allow it to chill overnight.

Step 12

Once set, release the cheesecake from the springform pan and transfer it to a serving plate.

Step 13

Before serving, top with fresh berries if desired. Slice and enjoy your gluten-free no-bake cheesecake!
