Viral Japanese Cheesecake Greek Yogurt No-Bake Dessert Everyone’s Making
This little dessert has absolutely taken over social media—and once you try it, you’ll understand why. It’s being called Japanese cheesecake yogurt, but really it’s that magical no-bake, barely-any-effort kind of treat that somehow tastes far more indulgent than it has any right to.
- Plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
- Biscoff cookies or any cookie you love
- Coffee for dipping the cookies (optional)
- Optional add-ins and swaps
- Banana-flavored Greek yogurt
- Nilla Wafers
- Vanilla Greek yogurt
- Oreos
- Ready-made cheesecake dip the kind that comes in a tube or tub
- Cottage cheese emulsified for extra protein
Step One: Start by choosing a small glass dish, bowl, or even a mason jar. This dessert works beautifully layered, but it’s just as good gently folded together.
Step Two: If you’re using coffee, pour a little into a shallow bowl. Quickly dip each cookie—just enough to soften it without letting it fall apart. Think tiramisu-style, not soggy.
Step Three: Add a layer of Greek yogurt to the bottom of your dish. Top with a layer of dipped cookies, breaking them as needed to fit. Repeat the layers until you reach the top, finishing with yogurt.
Step Four: Cover and refrigerate for at least two to three hours. This rest time is where the magic happens. The cookies soften, the yogurt thickens, and everything comes together into something surprisingly cheesecake-like.
Step Five: Scoop, spoon, and enjoy straight from the fridge.
