No Bake Cheesecake Filling served in a Waffle Cone

Honestly, thinking of cheesecake in this new way has me so excited. Not only are Cheesecake Waffle Cones delicious but the fact that they are totally portable is pretty amazing too.

I can imagine all of us serving these cheesecake filled cones for special occasions and holidays. All one would have to do is set out the cones {dipped is even better} and cheesecake, maybe even with toppings.

Ingredients Needed for your Cheesecake Waffle Cones

  • Cream Cheese-Be sure that you are using the full fat version, using a low fat cream cheese won’t give you the thick rich filling you go crazy for.
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk-The perfect ingredient for adding sweetness and creaminess to a no bake cheesecake filling.
  • Whipped Topping-It is important that you fold the whipped topping into the filling so that you don’t lose the airy texture.
  • Waffle Cones-The varieties are endless! There are mini cones, large cones and even different flavored ones.

How to make Cheesecake Cones

  1. Add the softened cream cheese to a bowl and use a hand held mixer to mix it until the cream cheese is smooth. Once smooth, add the sweetened condensed milk.
  2. Continue to mix using the hand held mixer until you have a smooth mixture.
  3. Finally, add the whipped topping to the mixture and slowly fold it into the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk.
  4. Place the cheesecake mixture into the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until it is set up.
  5. Gather your waffle cones. It is a great time to dip them if you would like to.
  6. Fill the waffle cones with the no bake cheesecake mixture, eat and enjoy!

Top 4 Cheesecake Cone Tips

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for the cheesecake. This will ensure that the cheesecake filling will be creamy, smooth and free from any lumps.
  • Allow the filling to refrigerate for at least 2 hours before filling the cones. Chilling the cheesecake filling is important because it will allow the filling to set up nicely.
  • Decorate your cones. You can always serve the cheesecake in a simple waffle cone but a little edible decorations around the edge of the cone will really give these No Bake Cheesecake Cones a beautiful touch.
  • Set all of the ingredients out and let your guests build their own Cheesecake Cones.

Ideas for Dipping your Cheesecake Waffle Cones

Putting the No Bake Cheesecake into a waffle cone is amazing but adding it to a dipped waffle cone takes it to the next level. A bit of chocolate and a sprinkling of delicious ingredients make this dessert super tasty. Here are some great ideas.

  • Sprinkles-I have used rainbow sprinkles but use whatever you have on hand.
  • Freeze Dried Fruit-The raspberries are so awesome but there are a variety of freeze dried fruit that would work great.
  • Candy-Almost any kind of candy would be wonderful. Just be sure to chop it down into bite sized pieces.
  • Coconut-Sweetened coconut was delicious but toasted coconut would be great too.
  • Chopped Nuts-Any variety of nuts that you like give the dessert an amazing sweet and salty flavor.
  • Mini Chocolate Chips-There could never be enough chocolate…right!?
  • Pretzels-Chop them up for an extra special taste.

Can I make Cheesecake Cones ahead of time?

Yes, you can. In fact, you can do it a couple of different ways. First, you could completely assemble the cones and refrigerate them until they are ready to be eaten. They should be good for about 24 hours. This holder is perfect for keeping them upright.

If you want to make them farther ahead than that, you can make the filling and gather the cones without assembling. The cheesecake filling will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days this way. Then you can assemble before eating or create a cheesecake cone bar.

Can you use any kind of No-Bake Cheesecake filling?

Absolutely! I have a handful of amazing no-bake cheesecake fillings that would be so delicious inside of a waffle cone.

You could try the Oreo No Bake Cheesecake, Cookie Butter No Bake Cheesecake, Pina Colada Cheesecake filling, Cookie Dough No Bake Cheesecake or even just serve it with fresh fruit as a topping.

No Bake Cheesecake Waffle Cones Recipe (2024)

FAQs

Can you over mix no bake cheesecake? ›

If you are making a plain cheesecake such as my no-bake vanilla cheesecake, you can probably get away with cold ingredients, but generally the cream cheese should be room temp. Often a cheesecake mixture can split or curdle because of over mixing – I often get comments of 'how long do I mix for?

Why is my no bake cheesecake not firming up? ›

The primary reason a no-bake cheesecake is too runny or doesn't set up properly is generally the temperature of the ingredients. If your cream cheese is too warm, the mixture will be too soft and will never set up properly.

Why are my homemade waffle cones soggy? ›

The waffle cones and bowls are extremely susceptible to the effects of humidity, and can begin softening in as little as 15 minutes if left in the open. Likewise, if stored in a container while warm, the waffle cones and bowls may steam themselves and soften.

How do you know if cheesecake is overmixed? ›

Cracking the Case. THE CAUSE: Overmixing the batter. When making your filling, overmixing can lead to incorporating too much air into the batter. Once baked, the air bubbles will burst, and the cheesecake will fall and crack.

What happens when you over mix cheesecake batter? ›

Avoid Overmixing: Unlike other cakes, where beating air into the batter is key, overmixed cheesecake can rise, fall and then crack from that excess air. Keeping ingredients (cheese, eggs, liquids and flavorings) at room temperature can help.

How do you thicken a no bake cheesecake filling? ›

Confectioners' Sugar: A smidge of confectioners' sugar thickens the filling, while also keeping it light. I tested with flour and cornstarch and both left a chalky aftertaste. I recommend sticking with confectioners' sugar. Sour Cream: Add a little sour cream for that trademark tangy cheesecake flavor.

How do you make a no bake cheesecake set faster? ›

Generally speaking they only take 8–12 hours to set in the fridge, so making it the night before is always preferable. I can hardly think of a situation where you'd need a no bake cheesecake in the next couple of hours. However when setting the base I would recommend using the freezer.

How do you fix a curdled no bake cheesecake? ›

Gently Warm The Batter

You can either pour the mixture into a pot at a low temperature or put it in a bowl over warm water. Stir continuously until all the cream cheese lumps are melted, and the mixture is completely smooth. It is also a good method to fix cheesecake batters that are curdled or split.

Should I cover no bake cheesecake in the fridge? ›

No-bake cheesecakes should be stored in the refrigerator to keep them fresh and prevent spoilage. Here are some tips for storing no-bake cheesecakes: Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap or foil to prevent it from drying out or absorbing any odors from other foods in the fridge.

Does no bake cheesecake taste better? ›

They both are great in their own way. It all narrows down to your personal preferences. If you enjoy dense and velvety cake, a baked cheesecake is the one for you. Or if you crave some light and airy dessert post-dinner, go for the no-bake one.

How long does a no bake cheesecake last? ›

I piped 150ml of extra whipped cream around the edge, then sprinkled over chopped/whole Mini Eggs - decorate the cheesecake just before serving. The cheesecake will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

How do you crisp waffle cones? ›

Luckily, it's easy to crisp up a stale cone! Here's what to do: Stand up your cones in the microwave and heat for 30 seconds on high. Let cool a few minutes, and they'll be nice and crisp again.

What are the disadvantages of waffle cones? ›

Since they tend to be softer than sugar cones, they are not as impervious to the ice cream melting, which can leave you with a big leaky mess. Waffle cones are also not formed in the same way, so the seam of the waffle cone tends to break apart, which is no fun if you don't have a backup bowl to support the fallout.

Can you mix cheesecake too much? ›

Overmixing may lead to cracks and a grainy texture

Overmixing your batter can ruin the structure and texture of your cheesecake. With a batter mainly composed of cream cheese, sugar, and egg yolks, you can quickly form cracks in your cheesecake with the excess air that comes from overmixing (via Cheesecakes World).

How do you fix a split no bake cheesecake mix? ›

Gently Warm The Batter

You can either pour the mixture into a pot at a low temperature or put it in a bowl over warm water. Stir continuously until all the cream cheese lumps are melted, and the mixture is completely smooth. It is also a good method to fix cheesecake batters that are curdled or split.

Is it better to overcook or undercook cheesecake? ›

Avoid Overcooking

DON'T overbake. Overbaking a cheesecake can cause cracks on the surface. The center of the cheesecake should still be a little wobbly, the filling still pale, and the outer ring slightly puffy and firm. It will continue to cook as it cools and maintains that smooth and rich texture.

Is it okay if my cheesecake batter is runny? ›

If you've ever made cheesecake that was runny, it's very likely that low-fat ingredients are to blame. Full fat sour cream adds extra moisture and a tangy flavor to the cake. However, you can swap out the sour cream for heavy cream or even full fat Greek yogurt.
