Print Recipe

A creamy, dreamy No Bake Huckleberry Cheesecake that captures the essence of summer with its sweet-tart flavors, perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 2 cups huckleberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 Tablespoon salted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup salted butter (softened)
  • 8 oz full-fat brick style cream cheese (softened)
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1–2 teaspoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (36% – 40% fat)

Instructions

  1. Make the Huckleberry Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cold water. Whisk until smooth and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Once bubbling, add huckleberries and butter. Cook for 5–7 minutes until thickened, then cool to room temperature.
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and chopped nuts. Add softened butter and mix until crumbly. Press into a 9-inch springform pan and let cool.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Whip softened cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Beat until fluffy.
  4. Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
  5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour filling over cooled crust, drizzle the huckleberry sauce on top, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Serve: Release the springform pan, slice, and enjoy!

Notes

For a smoother huckleberry sauce, use an immersion blender. Consider garnishing with fresh huckleberries and lemon zest.
