Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Crust
- Pulse the graham crackers in a blender or food processor until fine crumbs.
- In a bowl, mix the crumbs with sugar and melted butter until coated.
- Press the mixture into a 7-inch Spring-form pan lined with parchment paper.
- Place the pan in the freezer while preparing the filling.
Make the Filling
- In a stand mixer, combine the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, and Instant Jello pudding.
- On low speed, mix until combined, then add sugar, powdered sugar, Vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
- Mix on high until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Add Lucky Charms
- Pick out 20-30 colored marshmallows and some flakes from the Lucky Charms cereal.
- Gently fold the marshmallows and flakes into the cheesecake batter.
Prepare to Chill
- Pour the cheesecake batter over the crust in the Spring-form pan.
- Smooth the top and return to the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
Serve and Decorate
- Remove the cheesecake from the freezer and take off the Spring-form.
- Pipe vanilla frosting around the edge and sprinkle with additional Lucky Charms.
- Cut into 2 or 3-inch pieces and serve.
Notes
For added flavor, consider using almond extract. Don’t rush the chilling process for best results. Involve the kids in picking out marshmallows for fun!
