Hawaiian No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

This Hawaiian no bakecheesecake is one of my favorites to make. I live in Florida, so I've been raised on tropical fruits.

When I go on a cruise, one of my favorite things to do is have fresh tropical fruit from the area, so of course my cheesecake will featureDOLE Tropical Fruit.

If tropical fruit isn't your thing, you can substitute it out with any of the great DOLE canned fruit varieties available. They have a tone of selections, including Mandarin Oranges, Mangoes, and several varieties of pineapple, so it won't be hard to find one that you love.

When I was pregnant with Angeline, I practically lived off of their pineapple chunks!

How to make Hawaiian No Bake Cheesecake

DOLE canned fruit is also naturally fat and cholesterol free, low in sodium, and packed with Vitamins A and C, so you can delude yourself into thinking your cheesecake is actually goodfor you.

Directions for how to make Hawaiian No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

For the Crust:

In a small bowl, combine vanilla wafer crumbs and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan lightly coated with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

For the Filling:

In a small saucepan, stir in Dole Tropical Fruit and sugar. Warm over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until sugar is melted and forms a syrup.

Pour ½ cup reserved juice in a small bowl and sprinkle in unflavored gelatin. Let stand for 1 minute until thick. Stir gelatin mixture into the warm fruit/syrup mixture.

Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese. Stir often until cream cheese is melted and the mixture is well blended and creamy. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.

Fold in the whipped topping. Pour into spring form pan completely covering crust. Cover with saran wrap and refrigerate for at least 5 hours. (Pie should be hard enough to not leave a fingerprint when touching the top)

Fruit is Perfect for Snacking or Desserts!

If cheesecakes and other sweets aren't your thing, canned fruit is also perfect for more healthy snacks and dessert options. Their wide variety of canned fruits make a healthy mix-in for cottage cheese or yogurt, great fruit salads, or even in oatmeal.

Fruit is really an all-purpose choice for just about anything, and since it's available in the canned fruit aisle of pretty much every canned fruit aisle in America, you can always find it when you need it.
