WOW! is all I can say. This looks just amazing. My girls aren’t fond of traditional graham cracker crusts, so any cheesecakes that don’t use that type of crust grab my attention, but this one – I couldn’t look away! Cannot wait to try this out. Thanks for sharing!
@SherryO, i know you posted this 7 years ago but if your girls still aren’t fond of regular crust you can use Nilla wafers and they work amazing
Hi we don’t have cherry Gelatine in Cyprus can i use ordinary realtime?
If you have real gelatin (I couldn’t tell if the word “realtime was a typo or not) and add some cherry essence or extract into the measuring cup and then fill it the rest of the way with the water, you will have your cherry Jell-O!
This looks amazing!
I just want to confirm before attempting to make this. With the gelatin I should just follow the instructions here and not the instructions on the box, correct? I don’t want to waste ingredients for an entire cake because I didn’t do the gelatin correctly.
Yes, follow the directions here, and not what is on the box.
I made this as a pie and used the remains to make mini pies in a cupcake dish…I think next time I’ll use mini chocolate chips and put half and drizzlechocolate on the top when finished the recipe as is..the chocolate chips are overwhelming..still awesome recipe!!! So fun to make!!☺
What size springform pan did you use and what is the amount on the chocolate chips?
9″ and 2 cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips, sorry it didn’t copy over into the printable recipe, but it is in the post.
I only used 3 oz of jello oops will it still set
I know you found out already if it set or not, but my guess is that it was probably 6ozs because with 3 it didn’t set properly
This is a fun recipe and my kiddo enjoyed it. I would say, though, this isn’t technically a cheesecake…with whipped cream and jello added to it, there’s a foamy texture and the cheesecake flavor is subtle. I feel like I’ve had a dessert like this before at restaurants and buffets, but not sure what it’s normally called. Thought I’d make note of this if you’re a cheesecake purist! Either way, it’s pretty and a fun treat!
Can I use 2 cups cool whip instead of mixing the cream and powdered sugar?
Yes, that works too!
@Liz Lampman, are the cherries tart pie cherries? Can I use maraschino?
I used frozen dark sweet pitted cherries. Maraschino are too sweet to work here.
I’m making this now and it sounds delicious! But. If I could suggest moving the jello+boiling water step to the first thing you do, that would really help. I’ve got bowls sitting everywhere waiting for the jello to cool so I can finish assembly. I could have moved on to my next dish for the day but I’m stuck with no counter space! Still, very excited for this to set up so we can dig in!!!
