No Bake Mint Chocolate Chip Shamrock Cheesecake - an easy mint green dessert for St. Patrick’s Day!

The mint chocolate chip marshmallows are back :)

I raved about them yesterday. I know, you might be thinking.. “Beth, you are crazy, making your own homemade shamrock marshmallows!”

Well, I think you’re crazy for not wanting to try them. If we were neighbors I would make you a batch and we could sip on hot cocoa munching marshmallows together. Actually, I would probably talk you into helping me shovel the 10 inches of snow that fell overnight in exchange for marshmallows, of course.

Today’s post is supposed to be about the no bake mint chocolate chip cheesecake. And if you are a no bake cheesecake fan like me, then you’ll love it.

This recipe is especially great for St. Patrick’s Day because it’s a super quick green dessert that you can whip up in under one hour.

Of course you don’t have to top your mint chocolate chip cheesecakes with mint chocolate chip marshmallows, but I couldn’t resist. The only thing that’s better than mint chocolate chip is more mint chocolate chip. Think about eating a mint chocolate brownie with a scoop of mint chip ice cream, that’s a good combo, so I know this is a good combo :)

  • 10 oreos, pulsed into crumbs
  • 12 oz cream cheese, 1 and 1/2 packages softened

  1. These are super cute! They look so delicious too! I love mint and chocolate :)

  2. You always make the coolest and sweetest treats Beth! Love these gorgeous cheesecakes – and that fluffy marshmallow! WANT!

  3. Another recipe that will make them swoon. Topping it off with those adorable marshmellows, just sends an already amazing dessert over the top! Love it!

  4. These look delicious….how big are they? I need to make a St. Patricks day dessert for about 60 people and thought these would be perfect in mini cups but am trying to figure out exactly how many times I would need to multiply this recipe.

    1. Hi Amanda! This recipe made four 5.3 oz bowls of cheesecake! You could use smaller cups and put less cheesecake in each to try to stretch the recipe, but I think you’d need to make quite a few batches to feed 60 people!
