Creamy, naturally sweet, and absolutely no oven required.

The whole world has been going absolutely nuts over pistachio lately—so of course, we had to jump on this creamy, dreamy trend! And here’s a little secret: this no-bake pistachio cheesecake pairs perfectly with our Silky Gem crystal candy. The rich, smooth filling combined with the crisp, bouncy jelly center of our candy? It’s a heavenly match made in dessert paradise. Trust us—your taste buds are in for a treat.


Base Layer (Makes enough for 4 jars)

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup seedless dates (approx. 150g)
  • 1 tbsp pistachio flour (approx. 7g)
  • 1 tbsp pistachio butter (approx. 16g)
  • 1–2 tbsp milk of choice (only if mixture is too thick)

Instructions:

  1. Add dates, pistachio flour, and pistachio butter into a blender or food processor.
  2. Blend until the mixture sticks together like a soft dough. Add a small splash of milk if it’s too thick.
  3. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of 4 small jars.

Cheesecake Filling

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cottage cheese (approx. 450g)
  • 1 cup cream cheese (optional, for a richer texture – approx. 225g)
  • 1 tbsp pistachio butter (approx. 16g)
  • 2–3 tbsp honey or maple syrup, or 2 tbsp pistachio cream for sweetness
  • 1–2 tbsp milk of choice (only if needed for blending)

Instructions:

  1. Add cottage cheese, cream cheese (if using), pistachio butter, and your sweetener of choice into a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add milk a tablespoon at a time if it’s too thick to blend.
  3. Spoon the filling over the date base in your jars and smooth the top.

 

Topping Ideas (Optional but recommended!)

  • 1–2 tsp pistachio cream or pistachio butter drizzled on top
  • A pinch of crushed pistachios for garnish

Final Step:

Chill the jars in the fridge for at least 12 hours to fully set. Serve chilled and enjoy your naturally sweet, no-bake pistachio cheesecake!
