Cherry Cheesecake Lush is a no-bake dessert dream layered with buttery graham cracker crust, creamy cheesecake filling, light whipped topping, and sweet cherry pie filling. It’s the kind of dessert that feels rich and indulgent, yet comes together with simple ingredients and minimal effort.
If you love classic cherry cheesecake but don’t want the hassle of baking or waiting for it to set in the oven, this is your go-to recipe. It combines the cool, creamy texture of a lush dessert with the tangy-sweet flavor of cherries and the richness of cheesecake, creating a perfectly balanced treat.
Store Cherry Cheesecake Lush in the refrigerator, covered tightly with plastic wrap or a lid, for up to 4 days. For best texture, do not freeze, as the creamy layers may separate or become watery after thawing.
This dessert is ideal for summer gatherings, potlucks, holiday tables, or any time you need a make-ahead crowd-pleaser. It’s chilled and refreshing, easy to transport, and looks stunning with its layers. Cherry Cheesecake Lush is also a great alternative to traditional cake when you want something softer, cooler, and less formal. It’s a nostalgic dessert that’s always met with smiles and second helpings.
