Little pots of cheesecake on a blue napkin.

Thermomix "No-Bake" Salted Caramel Cheesecake is a super quick and super easy recipe that's perfect for making in individual serves. It isn't a sliced cheesecake so it doesn't need to be cooked or refrigerated overnight.

I first shared the recipe on my previous website, Gourmet Getaways and it's been one of the most popular recipes. Recently a Thermomix user asked me to convert the recipe for her. It is even easier to make in the Thermomix.

Whilst the recipe is simple the flavour is fabulous! I promise it's SO good you may hate me forever because it tastes amazing and, like most recipes I make, eats a cheat version of a cheesecake. I call it that because it tastes great but is thrown together with absolutely no fuss. Plus, there is no worry over whether it will set.

I have made this recipe a number of different ways over the years so I will share all the various serving options.

Serving Styles

This is a really versatile dessert. Choosing how you serve the cheesecake will depend on the type of event you're holding.

  • Formal Setting

To serve these as a sit-down dessert I have opted for using glass bowls or balloon wine glasses. This makes the dessert more elegant. I have topped it with chantilly cream and a shaving of chocolate.

  • Buffet Style

Serving the cheesecake in little jam jars and topping them with chantilly cream and a wedge of Twix bar makes this a rustic but cute dessert, fit for the buffet table. Once the caramel layer has been added, seal the jars with the lid. Leave the final decorating until just before serving.

  • BBQ - Bring a Plate Style

When you're asked to bring a plate the ideal dessert is one you can set down and people can help themselves. I like my contributions to be in disposable packaging so I don't contribute to any washing up and I don't have to track down my crockery or glassware. These plastic wine tasters are the perfect size to allow guests to try the Salted Caramel Cheesecake and still have room for other desserts. Although I usually find they keep coming back for more!

Step-By-Step Video Instructions

I love cheesecakes, and this Salted Caramel Cheesecake is one of my favourite recipes so I'm always happy to make it. For a little bit of fun, I made the recipe LIVE on FB! If you're unsure of any instructions take a look at the Live broadcast.

This video shows more details on how to use jam jars for your cheesecake and topping with piped chantilly cream and Twix bars.

FAQ Thermomix Cheesecake

Do I need to use gelatin?

No, if you don't wish to use the gelatin you can leave it out however the consistency will be a little different. The cheesecake will be a little less set and the caramel layer may seep into the cheesecake a little.

What will happen if I don't cool the caramel sauce enough?

If you add the caramel sauce when it is too hot it will melt the cheesecake and seep into the layer.

I don't like Ginger Nut biscuits, what can I use instead?

Butternut biscuits make a nice substitute, but you can really choose any biscuit including the traditional cheesecake base of Nice biscuits.

Do I really need the lemon juice?

Yes, the lemon juice cuts through some of the sweetness and adds the traditional cheesecake flavour. I wouldn't leave it out.

How long should I leave the finished cheesecake to set?

Once you add the caramel, leave the cheesecake for another 2 hours before adding the cream and toppings. Then serve.

How long will they keep in the fridge?

The cheesecake can be kept for a week in the fridge. It is best to decorate them closer to the serving time.

    This is the first 'no bake' cheesecake that has ever worked for me and it is a brilliant recipe. I've only made individual cakes and they disappear faster than I can make them. We're not ginger lovers so used butternut snaps instead for the base, but the best part of this recipe is the caramel - so delicious and hard to stop eating! Anyway, definitely recommend - thanks for the recipe, x

      Hi Julie
      The Caramel is made by heating condensed milk until it thickens into a caramel. Unfortunately, this is the only way to make it.
