      • \u201c[This is an] easy no-bake recipe with a great cheesecake taste,\u201d said one reviewer. \u201cLight and not overly sweet. I was a bit dubious about the marshmallows but I shouldn’t have doubted. Followed the recipe exactly and it came perfectly. A hit at a potluck I brought it to. I will make it often.\u201d<\/li>\n
      • \u201cThis was surprisingly easy considering how many bowls and pots I used to make it,\u201d said Allrecipes Allstar FrackFamily5 CACT. \u201cI was not sure how this would turn out but it was just sweet enough, just tangy enough and was fluffy and light. Next time, I\u2019ll take the crust out of the pie tin and press it into a springform pan.\u201d<\/li>\n
      • \u201cWOW! This ultra fluffy cheesecake is the easiest thing to make,\u201d shared another reviewer. \u201cIt adapts really easily too. I melted some chocolate chips with the marshmallows and ended up with a really nice mousse-like pie.\u201d<\/li>\n
      • \u201cI am a cheesecake person and I just had to try this out\u2014what a great treat,\u201d said one Allrecipes member. \u201cEverybody loved it and they’re usually upset if I don’t make my usual cheesecake. So easy and fast to make and I will definitely try it again.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
