The first time I had this I had tried the cream version and my first impression was this dessert was a lazy way to make no bake cheesecakes as they have nearly similar base and filling but just greatly differ on the toppings where instead of fruits, jelly was used in replacement.

Usually prepared during the holiday season this treat is popular with kids and for the young at heart and while we are still 4 months away from Christmas there’s nothing stopping me in making one hence our post today. If you know how to make non baked cheesecakes this is even easier to make so what are you waiting for start gathering your ingredients and make one at home now.
