Plus, here are even more Easy No Bake Dessert Recipes!

How do I make Monster Cheesecake?

Monster Cheesecake is SO easy! Especially No Bake Monster Cheesecake! You will need the basic no bake cheesecake ingredients plus peanut butter, M&Ms, and chocolate chips! 

Add all of the cheesecake ingredients together and beat until smooth. Then add the peanut butter, M&Ms, and Chocolate Chips! 

Tip: You will want to let the cheesecake sit in the fridge for 6-8 hours or overnight so that it becomes firm. Try not to garnish the cheesecake until you are ready to serve so the color on the M&Ms doesn’t bleed.

Can I use greek yogurt instead of sour cream in No Bake Cheesecake?

Yes! Absolutely! I have done it both ways and I couldn’t tell a difference. Use a vanilla greek yogurt or a full fat sour cream – whichever you have already! 

I do think that it sets more firm with sour cream over greek yogurt, but the taste is the same. 

No Bake Monster Cheesecake Ingredients

Monster No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

Prep time: 15-20 minutes
Chill time: 6 hours (or overnight)
Finish time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:
1 sleeve graham crackers
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
12 ounces of regular cream cheese (softened)
1 cup powdered (confectioners) sugar
2/3 cup regular sour cream
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips + 1/4 cup for garnishing
1/2 cup M&Ms + 1/4 cup for garnishing
1/4 cup chocolate fudge

Directions:
In a food processor, pulse graham crackers until crumbs.
Pour in melted butter and pulse until combined.
Press graham cracker crumbs into a 9” pie pan.
Refrigerate 10-15 minutes while you make the cheesecake batter.
To make the cheesecake batter, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together.
Add sour cream, peanut butter, and vanilla and beat until smooth.
Stir in M&Ms and chocolate chips.
Pour into prepared graham cracker crust and refrigerate 6-12 hours (or overnight).
Once chilled, drizzle with fudge and top with extra M&Ms and chocolate chips.

Notes:

  • Option to put the fudge in a zippered bag and cut the tip off to drizzle.
  • Tip: Keep fudge cold and do not heat in microwave or it will be too warm. Use your hands to work the fudge in the plastic bag so it’s easier to spread.
  • Garnishing with M&Ms and chocolate chips is optional.

Why is it called a monster dessert? 

It’s called a Monster Cheesecake or Monster Cookies because it’s a mashup of several components in the dessert (chocolate chips, M&Ms, Oats, Peanut Butter).

This would also be a fun cheesecake to make for Halloween. Just add some Eyeball Sprinkles to the garnishing!
