Easy No-Bake Jello Cheesecake

"Ok, so it's not a "traditional" cheesecake, but it's easy and tastes soooo good!! My grandmother used to make this all the time when I was little, and it still takes me back to my childhood whenever I eat it. This is great to take to picnics, potlucks, etc., and for some reason, just seems to taste even better in the summertime! Prep. time includes refrigerating time."

  1. Note from Manda: When whipping the milk, make sure you use a chilled glasss bowl and chilled beaters, same as if you were making a meringue. It will peak nicely for you:) ~Manda

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a single gal, living on my own; currently working as an Occupational Therapist & living in Cumberland, MD. (It is "God's Country" out here...beautiful!) I LOVE to cook and bake, and love anything that looks, tastes, smells, or even closely resembles a veggie. I LOVE moo-cows, and therefore, cannot bring myself to eat any part of the adorable critters (i.e. NO RED MEAT!!) I love the outdoors, and pride myself on being the master griller on the fire pit. My mother's side of the family is 100% Polish, so I have an inborn passion for cooking...unfortunately, along with that comes a love of eating, too!! But, hey..u only live once, so I say "EAT, DRINK, and BE MERRY!!!"
