Do you have a hankering for something delicious? You all know my instant pot has been a staple around this house for the summer. Now that Wintertime is almost over, I need some new recipes in my arsenal. This weekend, my girls and I want to town on creating new recipes. Check out this Instant Pot Cheesecake.
To say it is delicious, is an understatement. I don’t think regular cheesecake could even compare to this. Super easy to make and delicious to eat. What I really love about this cheesecake is how thick it is. If you wanted, you could even put some of your favorite toppings on it. I’m a strawberry cheesecake kinda girl.
Whatever you do, don’t miss out on making this, this is an Instant Pot Cheesecake recipe unlike any other. Enjoy!

Cook the cheesecake on manual, high pressure for 30 minutes.
