    Cheesecake. The ultimate delicious dessert with the weird name, am I right? My favorites are no bake cheesecakes, like this Hawaiian No Bake Cheesecake Recipe! I love to make the stuff. It's quick and easy, and it tastes delicious.

    Today, I'm going to be sharing my  no bake cheesecake recipe using DOLE canned fruit.

    This delicious DOLE Canned Fruit tropical cheesecake is brought to you by my sponsor, DOLE. All opinions in the post are 100% my own. This post contains affiliate links.

    Hawaiian No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

    This Hawaiian no bake cheesecake is one of my favorites to make. I live in Florida, so I've been raised on tropical fruits.

    When I go on a cruise, one of my favorite things to do is have fresh tropical fruit from the area, so of course my cheesecake will feature DOLE Tropical Fruit.

    If tropical fruit isn't your thing, you can substitute it out with any of the great DOLE canned fruit varieties available. They have a tone of selections, including Mandarin Oranges, Mangoes, and several varieties of pineapple, so it won't be hard to find one that you love.

    When I was pregnant with Angeline, I practically lived off of their pineapple chunks!

    The best part of making my cheesecake - or almost any dessert, really - with DOLE canned fruit is that it adds great texture and increases the moistness of your baked goods.

    DOLE canned fruit is also naturally fat and cholesterol free, low in sodium, and packed with Vitamins A and C, so you can delude yourself into thinking your cheesecake is actually good for you.

    Hey, it tastes good and that's basically the same thing, right?

      Your Dole Tropical Cheesecake recipe sounds delicious and I love that it's a no bake recipe because who wants the oven on with this heat. I like the dole fruit cups for a midday snack.

      My daughter is allergic to fresh pineapple, so canned is always the way we go. Dole is at the top of the list!

      Mm, that looks delicious. I like no bake recipes, especially when I don't have much time to spend in the kitchen.
