Gathering Your Ingredients for No-Bake Peach Cheesecake Jars

Graham Cracker Crust for Your No-Bake Peach Cheesecake Jars

First up is our crumbly base. You’ll need graham cracker crumbs and some melted butter. Unsalted butter works best here. Just melt it gently until it’s liquid. Mix the crumbs and butter until the crumbs are evenly moistened. It should feel like wet sand.

Creamy Cheesecake Filling for No-Bake Peach Cheesecake Jars

Now for that dreamy filling! Make sure your cream cheese is nice and soft. This helps it blend smoothly. Sifting your powdered sugar can give an extra-smooth texture. Beat these together with the vanilla until there are no lumps. It should be light and fluffy.

Light and Airy Whipped Cream and Peach Layers

For our final layers, we need cold heavy whipping cream. Whip it until you have stiff peaks. This means when you lift the whisk, the cream holds its shape. Spoon half of this fluffy cream into the cheese mixture. Gently fold it in. Then, spoon in your sweet peach preserves. If you have fresh peaches, dice them small for a lovely garnish.
