5 Minute Chocolate Cheesecake

You know how much I love to make (and eat) cheesecake. I have been asked many times to publish a recipe that is fast, inexpensive and easy enough for a 4 year old to make. Well, if you like chocolate and own a hand mixer then this recipe is for you. In the 5 minutes it takes to whip up a chocolate pudding mix and beat in a few box ingredients you can have this baby in your refrigerator. The hardest part is waiting the hour to let it chill. Honest! You can trust me on this. Enjoy!

Here are a few suggestions for an after dinner sweet. Insane Zany Brownies , or a 5 Minute Chocolate Cheesecake , a delicious Slice of Heaven Cake, or Hershey Almond Chocolate Mousse Pie.

My Tip Friday, 6 Tips To A Perfect Cheesecake Experience will guide you to that perfect cheesecake outcome!

      • Looks heavenly, definitely making this recipe. Can I beat fresh cream and use it instead of the whipped topping, Marilyn? And if yes, how much beaten cream will that be? Rhanks So much, appreciate …

        • I wouldn’t substitute cream and expect cheesecake. You can however, add a pint of whipping cream, coolwhip, or reddi whip type of product mixed into the pudding. If you do that you will end up with a mousse filling instead of a cheesecake. A mousse is a lighter, more whipped texture than regular pudding. Enjoy and let me know what you decide!

        • Thank you for your reply to my question, Marilyn. I really also thought that a tub of whipped topping will give the same results as fresh whipping cream – my mistake. We are farmers and have cans full of freshly separated cream from our dairy on the farm, hence my question. I also noticed that a lot of recipes ask for cream cheese and whipping cream as ingredients – this is the way one learns, thank you again for your quick response!

  21. I love cheesecakes and seeing as this one is so easy I should try and make one with my little ones, aged 3 and 5. They love cheesecake but I haven’t made one for ages. Instead, whenever I try and eat one for dessert when we go out, they join in a eat most of it before I have a chance!

  23. What a good idea. I actually have a four-year-old granddaughter that would love helping me to make this one day for her family when they come over for dinner.

    • The kids just love to bake with me and this is one of their favorites. And I don’t seem to have that urge to jump in and say, “do it lke this”! I hope you have fun and enjoy the cheesecake too! Happy Thanksgiving!
