Lemon Raspberry Cheesecake Trifle - sweet and creamy no-bake dessert with a hint of lemon and layers of raspberry pie filling. Crazy delicious!Â
The no-bake version of cheesecake (aka my favorite dessert of them all) is the best treat. The ease of making it and the sweet and creamy texture along with the flavor possibilities makes it irresistible and hard to turn down.
I've had a couple of quite stressful weeks lately. We just wrapped up our homeschooling year and our girls finished their ballet classes with a recital. It wasn't our first yet it was an emotional event. Actually, it was double emotional because this year both of our girls danced in the recital.
On a stage.
In front of a huge audience.
I was stressing out about the costumes and prayed that no one falls or starts crying. And they didn't. They did an amazing job and had a ton of fun! I was a bawling mess in the end.
This special event required a special treat. Cheesecake seemed like a natural choice. Especially this no-bake version with a hint of lemon and layers of raspberry pie filling. Perfect dessert for this time of year!
