This No Bake Apple Butter Cheesecake is a creamy, spiced fall dessert with a buttery graham cracker crust, smooth cheesecake filling, and a gorgeous swirl of apple butter. It’s easy to make, no oven required, and perfect for impressing guests during the holiday season.

Ingredients

For the Crust:

1 cup graham cracker crumbs (crushed full sheets for better flavor)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Filling:

16 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 cup heavy cream (or whipped topping)

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 cup apple butter (homemade or store-bought)

Instructions

  1. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter until mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.
  4. In another bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gradually add heavy cream and lemon juice, mixing until fluffy and fully combined.
  6. Pour the cheesecake filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top.
  7. Spoon apple butter over the top and gently swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm and set. Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

Add a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the crust for extra warmth.

Use whipped topping instead of heavy cream for a lighter version.

Layer extra apple butter between filling layers for more flavor.

Top with crushed pecans or caramel drizzle for a festive finish.

Freeze (without topping) for up to 2 months; thaw and swirl in apple butter before serving.
