If you're a fan of the nostalgic creamsicles, then let us introduce you to your new favorite cheesecake. We incorporated the sweet orange flavors of the classic treat into this ultra-creamy cheesecake with a buttery crust for the ultimate summer treat. One of our favorite things about this recipe? It's a no-bake dream. Once you combine your ingredients and assemble your swirled delight, the majority of time is spent waiting for the cheesecake to set in the fridge, making this the easiest make-ahead treat.
Remember not to rush a good thing: Give your cheesecake plenty of time to set in the fridge to make sure it's fully set up by the time you're ready to serve. While you can use a graham cracker crust, we're a little obsessed with the Golden Oreo cookies crust we used here. Wondering how to get that incredible swirl? All you need to do is use a knife to swirl together your layers while assembling. After your cheesecake is set, top with dollops of whipped cream (and some orange zest if you're feeling fancy) for the ultimate summer dessert.
