No-Bake Orange Pineapple Swirl Cheesecake Recipe.

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Crust

1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until fully combined.
2. Press into Pan: Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill in the fridge while you make the filling.

Step 2: Prepare the Cheesecake Filling

1. Beat the Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
2. Add Powdered Sugar and Vanilla: Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.
3. Fold in Whipped Cream: Gently fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Step 3: Create the Orange and Pineapple Layers

1. Divide the Filling: Separate the cheesecake mixture evenly into two bowls.
2. Add Orange and Pineapple: In one bowl, mix in the drained crushed pineapple. In the other bowl, stir in the orange juice concentrate. Add a few drops of yellow food coloring to the pineapple mixture and orange food coloring to the orange mixture, if desired.

Step 4: Swirl the Layers

1. Layer and Swirl: Pour alternating spoonfuls of each filling onto the crust, then use a butter knife or skewer to gently swirl the two mixtures together, creating a marbled effect.

Step 5: Set and Serve

1. Chill: Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set.
2. Garnish: Garnish with pineapple slices, orange zest, or whipped cream before serving for extra flair.

Tips for the Perfect Cheesecake

• Chill Time: Let the cheesecake set fully in the fridge for the best texture and easiest slicing.
• Swirling: For a marbled look, don’t over-swirl. A few figure-8 motions with a knife are usually enough.
• Optional Toppings: Fresh fruits, whipped cream, or even a drizzle of fruit syrup add beautiful final touches.
