Just in time for Halloween! It's a no bake cheesecake full of delicious orange flavor. My husband loves anything creamsicle and he was so excited to try this. He absolutely loved it. I recommend letting it set for at least 6 hours but the longer the better! Don't add the whipped cream topping and orange slices until you are ready to serve. I hope you guys enjoy!
