Kiwi Cheesecake is a creamy and refreshing no-bake dessert topped with vibrant slices of fresh kiwi, offering a perfect balance of tangy fruit and smooth cream cheese filling on a buttery graham cracker crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for crust)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 45 ripe kiwis, peeled and sliced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp sugar (optional, for sweetening kiwi topping)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
  2. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill in the fridge while preparing the filling.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and mix until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  5. Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  7. Before serving, top the cheesecake with sliced kiwis arranged in a decorative pattern. If desired, toss kiwi slices with lemon juice and a bit of sugar for extra gloss and flavor.

Notes

  • Use firm-ripe kiwis to avoid excessive moisture on the topping.
  • Chill overnight for best texture and flavor.
  • You can use gelatin to set the filling more firmly if desired.
  • Optional: drizzle with a clear fruit glaze to enhance presentation.
