Nothing beats no-bake desserts for summer, and these Peach Praline No-Bake Cheesecake Parfaits are tasty layered treats you won’t want to pass up!
Helllloooo friends and Happy Thursday! How’s your week going? Mine’s been absolutely peachy!
Sorry folks, but I just couldn’t resist! I’m in full-blown peach mode! These parfaits. They’re amazing! Sweet, juicy summer peaches nestled between layers of creamy no-bake cheesecake and a pecan graham cracker crust. Hello new favorite summer dessert!
Talk about easy to put together too. There’s no baking involved with these little beauties, so everything comes together in mere minutes! The hardest part is waiting for them to chill a bit in the fridge before serving.
The cheesecake filling is only 5 ingredients folks. Five ingredients to creamy, dreamy deliciousness. And the peaches are simply tossed with a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon, while the praline crust is a mixture of graham cracker crumbs, finely chopped pecans, butter and brown sugar. Told ya. Couldn’t be easier! Enjoy!
- Praline Crust: makes about 1 1/2 cups
- 1/2 cup pecans finely chopped
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar firmly packed
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- Cheesecake:
- 8 oz. cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream chilled
- Peach filling: makes about 2-2 1/4 cups
- 4 ripe peaches peeled and diced (about 2 lbs.)
- 4 tsp. light brown sugar firmly packed
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- a few sprigs of mint for garnish if desired
-
In a medium bowl, combine the pecans, graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar with a fork. Stir in the melted butter until well combined. Set aside.
-
In a large bowl with a hand-held mixer, mix the cream cheese and confectioner's sugar for 3 minutes until smooth. Add the sour cream, vanilla and whipping cream and mix for 4-5 minutes until thick. Place in fridge to chill while you make the peach filling.
-
In a medium bowl, combine peaches, brown sugar and cinnamon. Toss until well coated. Set aside.
-
To assemble parfaits: Place 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of crumb mixture at bottom of each 8 oz. glass. No need for exact measurements with the cheesecake and peach fillings, Just add some cheesecake filling and then top with some peach filling. Then repeat all layers one more time, crumbs, cheesecake, peaches. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours to chill so the cheesecake firms up a bit. Before serving, add a sprig of mint on top for garnish, if desired.
-
These will keep in the fridge for a few days covered in plastic wrap.
Gimme some of that sweet layered goodness. It sounds like a match made in heaven and looks so pretty! The perfect summer dessert.

There’s that gorgeous peach recipe you were telling me about, Mary Ann! Wow! I love how easy this is and that you can keep it for a few days. Great for summer entertaining. And that praline? Yum…I may top my morning yogurt off with it, too! ;)

I could eat that praline crust by the spoonful! This is a lovely summer dessert, Mary Ann! Pinned!

The peaches are amazing right now (my favorite time of year!) so I’m down with celebrating and using them as much as possible including this awesome parfait!
I know, aren’t they Gina! I could eat them all day long!
This is 100% my kind of summer dessert! Peaches are so incredible right now. There’s no better way to showcase their deliciousness!

It’s hard to put into words how much I want one of these right now! That praline crust layer in particular has my mouth watering like crazy. I’ve had a hard time finding good peaches this summer, but I’ll keep looking!

Yum, Yum, Yum! I love everything about this, Mary Ann. When I was a kid, a neighbor made the best no bake cheesecake and she wouldn’t share the recipe with my mom (mean – right?). So maybe this is it! I will definitely be trying this this weekend! Have a great week.
