Dulce de Leche No-Bake Cheesecake Pie  #NestleTollHouse #DelightFulls #TollHouseTime

I’m not much of a baker, definitely more of a home cook. I love to make no-bake dessert recipes, though. My Turtle Pie recipe also known as no bake caramel cheesecake is delicious and perfect for any skill level to make. Just like my no bake pumpkin cheesecake or even my no bake mini cheesecakes. All three of these recipes are delicious. If you love OREO cookies you’ll love this pie, because the crust is made from crushed OREO’s!

Ingredients

Dulce de Leche No-Bake Cheesecake Pie  #NestleTollHouse #DelightFulls #TollHouseTime
  • Cream Cheese – Half a block of softened cream cheese is all you need to obtain the rich creamy filling.
  • Whip Topping – One container will be folded into the caramel cream cheese filling.
  • Powdered Sugar – This will help sweeten the cream cheese filling.
  • Oreo Pie Crust – This is a store bought pie crust you can find in the baking section at the grocery store.
  • Dulce de Leche Jarred Spread – This jar will get mixed into the cream cheese mixture.
  • Caramel Sauce – This sauce will get poured on top before the chocolate chips and pecans go on top.
  • Chocolate Chips – I like to use Nestle Toll House DelightFulls Milk Chocolate Morsels with Caramel Filling but if you can’t find them you can use regular chocolate chips.
  • Pecans – Pecans are what make turtle pie complete. Just a half cup chopped will do the trick.

How to Make a No Bake Cheesecake

Dulce de Leche No-Bake Cheesecake Pie #NestleTollHouse #DelightFulls #TollHouseTime

First, using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, whip the cream cheese until light and fluffy (about 1 minute on medium-high speed). Then add in the powdered sugar. Whip on low then gradually move to medium speed for 1 minute.

Next add in the dulce de leche spread. Whip for 1 minute. Gentle fold in the cool whip topping. Fold until well incorporated. Spoon the dulce de leche cheesecake filling into the oreo pie crust (smooth the top with a spatula).

Chop the ¾ cup of Milk Chocolate Morsels with Caramel Filling. Sprinkle on top of the pie. Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least one hour or until set. Before serving drizzle caramel sauce on top.

Recipe FAQs

Here are a few of the most common questions asked when making a no-bake caramel cheesecake.

What is turtle pie made of?

Turtle pie is a custard/cheesecake filling with caramel, chocolate and pecans that are used to top the pie.

How do you make a no-bake cheesecake set?

In order to get the no-bake cheesecake to set you will need to let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 4-8 hours.

Do you put eggs in a no-bake cheesecake?

No you do not put eggs in a no-bake cheesecake. For this reason you do not need to cook the cheesecake. The no-bake cheesecake “sets” by chilling in the refrigerator.

Tips & Tricks

  • Milk Chocolate Morsels with Caramel Filling – If you can not find these you can use regular chocolate chips or a mix of chocolate chips and caramel chips.
  • Make Ahead – You can make the turtle pie up to a day in advance before serving.

    I know there are some purist who would think desserts like this were cheating because they are sooooo easy. But they are sooooooo good. At Thanksgiving a no bake nutella cheesecake that was a simple as this brought down the house. Wonderful—-because you are right. Why make the holidays more busy and stressful than they need to be.
