A few of these recipes only need a handful of ingredients, and many can be made ahead, which makes them easy to pull out for holidays, showers, potlucks, or late-night fridge raids.

Baileys Chocolate Cheesecake Trifle

This chocolate cheesecake trifle layers chocolate cake, creamy cheesecake pudding filling, whipped topping, and crushed Oreos into one ridiculously rich dessert. I love making this one ahead for potlucks because it always disappears fast.

Nutter Butter Trifle

My classic Nutter Butter trifle layers crushed peanut butter cookies, cheesecake pudding filling, and whipped topping into a creamy dessert that tastes a lot like peanut butter cheesecake. I love how the cookies soften in the fridge and turn almost cake-like overnight.

Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake Bites

These pumpkin spice cheesecake bites have a soft, creamy center and all those cozy fall flavors you start craving the second the weather cools down. I especially love the sweet white coating on the outside because it gives them that little candy-shop feel without being hard to make.

Lemon Cheesecake Bites

My lemon cheesecake bites have a bright lemon flavor and a creamy center that keeps them from feeling too heavy. Store them in the fridge for hot days; they taste cold, fresh, and like a lemon pie in bite-sized form.

Baileys Cheesecake Balls

I save these Baileys cheesecake balls for the holidays because they feel a little extra in the best way. The creamy center stays soft and rich straight from the fridge, while the chocolate coating gives each bite that satisfying snap.

No-Bake Black Forest Cheesecake

I pull out this no-bake Black Forest cheesecake during the holidays when everybody wants something extra indulgent for dessert. The chocolate cheesecake filling with cherries on top tastes like a cross between Black Forest cake and a classic cheesecake shop slice.

No Bake Cheesecake

This is my take on the vintage no-bake cheesecake recipe. It’s got a thick graham cracker crust and a creamy filling that slices clean straight from the fridge. Keep this recipe in your back pocket, because you can dress it up with almost any topping you want, for any occasion.
