Instructions

Step 1: Make the Fruity Pebbles Crust
In a large bowl, mix the Fruity Pebbles cereal with granulated sugar.
Pour in the melted butter and stir until all cereal is coated.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
Freeze for 10–15 minutes while you prepare the filling.

Step 2: Whip the Cream
Using a chilled bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream with a hand or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Set aside in the fridge while you prepare the rest of the cheesecake base.

Step 3: Prepare the Cheesecake Base
In another large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Make sure there are no lumps.

Step 4: Combine and Fold
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula.
Take your time to keep the texture light and fluffy.
Once combined, gently fold in 1 cup of Fruity Pebbles cereal until evenly distributed.

Step 5: Assemble the Cheesecake
Remove the crust from the freezer and pour the cheesecake mixture over the crust.
Spread evenly and smooth the top with a spatula.
Sprinkle additional Fruity Pebbles cereal on top for decoration.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight.

Step 6: Serve & Decorate
Once the cheesecake has set, remove the sides of the springform pan.
Top with whipped cream swirls, extra Fruity Pebbles, sprinkles, or cherries for a festive finish.
Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

Use Fresh Cereal – For the best crunch and flavor.
Chill Long Enough – At least 6 hours for a firm, sliceable texture.
Don’t Overmix – Gently fold the whipped cream to keep it light and airy.
Press the Crust Firmly – This helps it hold together when slicing.
Decorate Just Before Serving – Toppings stay crisp and fresh this way.
