The ingredients are regular pantry ingredients, and for the fruit, you can opt-out, or feel free to add any other fruit you like. For example, you can use any frozen berries, such as blueberries, strawberries etc, or indeed canned fruit.

I call this our emergency dessert because I always have the ingredients in my kitchen, so it's a very handy and flexible recipe to have in your collection.

The recipe itself is very easy to make, and even the kiddies enjoy helping by bashing the graham crackers to crumbs and mixing the batter.

This baked cheesecake works best if you allow it to completely cool and chill for a few hours so it's easy to cut into slices. To speed things up, you can always pop it in the freezer for an hour to firm up enough to slice and serve.

So let's get straight to the recipe and see how easy it is to make this cheesecake.
