How to Make Pop Rocks No Bake Strawberry Lime Cheesecake

  1. Crush 1 ½ cups graham crackers and ½ cup cookies (e.g., digestive biscuits) into fine crumbs. Mix with 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar until evenly combined.
  2. Allow the butter mixture to cool slightly. Gently fold in ½ cup Pop Rocks candies. Be careful not to crush them too much.
  3. Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of a 7-inch springform pan. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces cream cheese (softened) with ⅓ cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons lime juice until smooth and creamy.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  6. Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust and spread evenly.
  7. Top with 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries.
  8. Cover the springform pan with foil and freeze for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
  9. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.
  10. Garnish with fresh lime zest before serving.
