I love this recipe for no bake cheesecake, it’s quick and easy to make. I enjoy this recipe because it is not overly sweet, it is the perfect combination of tart and sweet in one dessert. Plus, the canning jars make them the perfect size and it’s great because there is no serving required, everybody grabs their own.
