Julie’s Easy Freezer Cheesecake

This recipe is from my good friend Julie. This is an easy cheesecake to make that is perfect for the freezer. The first time we had this cheesecake was a couple of years ago at my daughter’s graduation party. Julie made three of these for the party. What a great friend! These are great with cherries or strawberries on top.

Assembly Directions:

If using store bought graham cracker crusts, flip the protective liner over and use it as a lid. Place cheesecake in gallon freezer bag. Seal, label and freezer.
If using homemade crust, flash freeze cheesecakes until solid. Place in gallon freezer bag. Seal, label and freeze.

Serving Directions:
Thaw and enjoy.

Comments:
You can substitute light whipped topping for regular. You can also substitute reduced fat cream cheese for regular cream cheese. These are great with cherries or strawberries on top.
