Making a Cookie Crust for Instant Pot Cheesecake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I decided to make a coconut cookie crust using Toasted Coconut Cookie Thins<\/a>. They\u2019re an addictive crispy, crunchy cookie, and they\u2019re perfect for a cheesecake crust. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I usually buy them in big bags at Costco or Sam\u2019s Club, but they\u2019re also in my local grocery store. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf6a If you can\u2019t find Toasted Coconut Cookie Thins<\/strong>, you can use any other crunchy cookie! Golden Oreos, Nilla wafers, or graham crackers are all great options. Simply follow the cheesecake crust recipe as written, substituting your cookies.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making this no-bake cheesecake crust is simply a matter of combining the crushed cookies and melted butter, forming them into a crust on the bottom of the cake pan, and freezing. The crust will set after 10 minutes. It’s ready to fill with your vanilla cheesecake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make the Fruit Topping for the Cheesecake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This cheesecake is topped with a rich strawberry-blueberry compote<\/a>. It\u2019s a simple, easy recipe that tastes decadent and amazing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong> This Instant Pot Berry compote<\/strong><\/a> was originally part of the cheesecake recipe. However, since I also love this topping on yogurt<\/a>, oatmeal<\/a>, pancakes<\/a>, and so many other foods<\/a>, I decided to give it its own recipe page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019d love to know what else you serve with the compote\u2014leave a note in the comments!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Store Your Prepared Cheesecake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cheesecakes need to be chilled in the fridge for several hours after cooking. <\/strong>This helps them set fully and form that creamy texture everyone loves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To ensure your Fourth of July cheesecake sets up nicely, let it cool at room temperature, then cover and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udca1 You can store the cheesecake for 2 to 5 days in the fridge.<\/strong> (Days 1 and 2 after cooking are when it’s best quality.) This means that Instant Pot cheesecake is an excellent make-ahead dessert!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
