How to Make Easy No Bake Jello Cheesecake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups cornflake crumbs, ½ cup packed brown sugar, and ⅓ cup melted margarine. Mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Reserve about ¼ cup of the crumb mixture for topping.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 2 cups of cold milk with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  5. Gradually add ¾ cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the whipped milk, beating until combined.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat 1 (8 ounce) package of softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  7. Gradually add the whipped cream cheese to the whipped milk mixture, beating until well combined.
  8. Add 1 (3 ounce) package of Jello powder to the mixture and beat until completely dissolved.
  9. Gently fold in 1 cup of drained crushed pineapple and ½ cup of drained and chopped maraschino cherries.
  10. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cornflake crust in the prepared pan.
  11. Sprinkle the reserved ¼ cup of cornflake crumbs evenly over the top.
  12. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely before serving.
