After a big meal, this fluffy no-bake cheesecake with its deliciously different applesauce and peanut topping really hits the spot. It needs no crust, and the light cheese layer is smooth and creamy. -Adeline Piscitelli, Sayreville, New Jersey

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.
