How to Make No-Bake Twix Cheesecake

Quick Overview

This No-Bake Twix Cheesecake is simple, delicious, and incredibly satisfying. It features a crunchy biscuit base, a creamy cheesecake filling, and indulgent chocolate-caramel toppings. There’s no baking involved, and the prep time is about 25 minutes, plus chilling time to let everything set perfectly. It’s ideal for beginners and experienced bakers alike.

Key Ingredients for No-Bake Twix Cheesecake

Here’s everything you’ll need to make this irresistible cheesecake:

• 300 g digestive biscuits (or graham crackers), finely crushed

• 120 g unsalted butter, melted

• 500 g full-fat cream cheese, softened

• 120 g powdered sugar, sifted

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 250 ml heavy whipping cream, cold

• 4–5 Twix bars, chopped into bite-sized pieces

• 150 g caramel sauce, store-bought or homemade

• 100 g milk chocolate, melted (for topping)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Biscuit Base
   Add the crushed digestive biscuits to a bowl and pour in the melted butter. Mix until the crumbs resemble wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan, creating an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to set.

2. Make the Cheesecake Filling
   In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then mix until fully combined and lump-free.

3. Whip the Cream
   In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This step is key for a light and airy cheesecake texture.

4. Combine and Fold
   Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula. Take your time to keep the mixture fluffy. Fold in the chopped Twix bars evenly.

5. Assemble the Cheesecake
   Spoon the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit base. Smooth the top with a spatula and tap the pan lightly to remove air bubbles.

6. Chill to Set
   Cover and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6 hours, or overnight for best results. This allows it to firm up perfectly.

7. Add the Toppings
   Before serving, drizzle caramel sauce and melted chocolate over the top. Finish with extra chopped Twix bars for decoration.

What to Serve No-Bake Twix Cheesecake With

This rich cheesecake pairs beautifully with a hot cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk. For a dessert table, serve it alongside fresh berries to balance the sweetness. If you’re hosting guests, a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of extra caramel sauce makes it even more indulgent. Light herbal tea also complements the creamy texture nicely.

Top Tips for Perfecting No-Bake Twix Cheesecake

• Use full-fat cream cheese for the creamiest cheesecake texture. Low-fat versions won’t set as well.

• Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps.

• Chill the cheesecake long enough—rushing this step can lead to a soft, messy slice.

• For a twist, swap Twix with Snickers or KitKat, but keep the same cheesecake base.

• Don’t overmix once you add the whipped cream; gentle folding keeps it light and fluffy.

Storing and Reheating Tips

Store leftover cheesecake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To keep it fresh, cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. This cheesecake also freezes well—wrap individual slices tightly and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before serving. Since it’s a no-bake dessert, reheating isn’t needed; enjoy it chilled for the best flavor and texture.

This No-Bake Twix Cheesecake proves that making an impressive cheesecake doesn’t have to be complicated. Creamy, crunchy, and packed with flavor, it’s the kind of dessert everyone asks for again and again. Give it a try—you’ll be amazed at how easy and delicious homemade cheesecake can be. 🍰
