If you need gluten-free options, look for gluten-free Swiss rolls. Many brands now offer these. You can also make the cheesecake lower in sugar. Use a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit.

Place the cheesecake in the fridge right after it sets. Cover the top with plastic wrap or use an airtight container. This helps it stay moist and keeps other odors out. If you have leftovers and want to freeze them, cut the cheesecake into slices. Wrap each slice in plastic wrap. Then, place the wrapped slices in a freezer bag. This way, you can enjoy a piece anytime! When stored properly, your cheesecake can last up to five days in the fridge. If frozen, it can last about two months. Just remember to thaw it in the fridge before serving. This keeps the texture nice and creamy. Enjoy your cheesecake! For the full recipe, refer to the section on ingredients and instructions. Yes, you can make this cheesecake ahead of time. It tastes even better after chilling. I suggest preparing it the night before your event. This allows the flavors to blend well. Just keep it covered in the fridge. It will stay fresh for up to three days. If you lack a springform pan, don’t worry! You can use a regular cake pan. Just line the bottom and sides with plastic wrap or parchment paper. This makes it easy to lift out the cheesecake. You can also use a pie dish if that’s what you have. The shape will change, but the taste stays the same! To avoid cracks, keep your cream cheese at room temperature. This helps it mix better. Make sure to fold the whipped cream gently. Overmixing can lead to cracks. Also, let the cheesecake chill slowly in the fridge. Rapid temperature changes may cause cracks too. Heavy cream gives the cheesecake a rich, smooth texture. If you want to skip it, you can use whipped topping. Another option is to use coconut cream for a dairy-free version. The cheesecake will still be tasty, but the texture may be different. For a lighter option, use half-and-half, but it won’t be as creamy. For the full recipe, check the main section above! This blog post showed you how to make a No Bake Swiss Roll Cheesecake.

Ingredients
  

1 package of Swiss roll cake (store bought, chocolate or vanilla)

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1/4 cup cocoa powder (optional, for added chocolate flavor)

Fresh fruits for garnish (like strawberries or raspberries)

Chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions
 

Start by preparing the base. Line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Slice the Swiss roll cake into thin rounds and layer the bottom of the springform pan, covering the base completely. Set aside any remaining slices for decoration if desired.

      In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

        Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined and there are no lumps.

          In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold this whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well incorporated.

            If desired, sift in the cocoa powder and fold gently until combined, creating a chocolate-flavored cheesecake layer.

              Pour the cheesecake mixture over the Swiss roll base in the springform pan, spreading it evenly.

                Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until it is firm enough to slice. Ideally, let it chill overnight for best results.

                  Once set, remove the sides of the springform pan and top the cheesecake with any leftover Swiss roll slices, fresh fruits, and chocolate shavings for a decorative touch.
