4th of July Swirl Pie Recipe (No-Bake)

A creamy no-bake cheesecake pie with a graham cracker crust and red-and-blue swirled jam on top—perfect for a festive, fuss-free 4th of July dessert.

Ingredients
  

For the Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar optional, for extra sweetness

For the Filling:

  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 ¼ cups heavy whipping cream cold

For the Swirl:

  • 2 tbsp raspberry jam or strawberry
  • 2 tbsp blueberry jam
  • Optional: red and blue food coloring for more vivid swirls

Instructions
 

  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press into a 9-inch pie dish and chill for 20 minutes.
  • Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice; beat again until light. In another bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
  • Spread filling over crust. Warm jams for 10 seconds, drop spoonfuls on top, and swirl with a toothpick. Add food coloring if desired.
  • Refrigerate pie for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
  • Top with fresh berries. Slice and serve chilled.
