If you love the taste of chocolate and honey, try this easy Toblerone Cheesecake recipe! A buttery crust, creamy chocolate cheesecake filling, and bits of chopped candy bar in each ganache-covered bite.
No Bake Toblerone Cheesecake
Our no-bake Toblerone Cheesecake recipe is packed with Swiss milk chocolate candy bar pieces mixed into a rich chocolate cheesecake filling; it’s piled into a no-cook graham cracker crust and covered with a ganache topping.
While a baked cheesecake recipe often requires eggs or gelatin to set, this simple version relies upon full-fat cream cheese, sour cream, and whipped cream to hold its form.
This chocolate Toblerone cheesecake is my favorite fuss-free dessert, made so much faster and easier than its baked counterpart because there’s no water bath to worry about.

Substitutions and Additions
- Create Your Crust: You can substitute plain or chocolate graham crackers for the honey graham crackers or use vanilla wafer cookies for a similar flavor.
- Swap The Sour Cream: Feel free to substitute whole fat, plain greek yogurt for the sour cream.
- Choose Your Chocolate: Instead of dark chocolate chips, make your ganache with milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips for a sweeter topping. You can also use chopped baking chocolate but be sure the amount is about the same.
- Decorate Your Dessert: When garnishing your cake, get creative! Use whipped topping, whole Toblerone pieces, and chocolate syrup to make your cheesecake visually appealing and even more delicious.
How to Make Toblerone Cheesecake
- Create Your Crust: Crush the graham crackers until finely crumbled, add in the honey and melted butter and pulse to combine. Press the mixture into the springform pan to form a thick crust. Cover and chill in the fridge. (Image 1)
- Form The Cheesecake Filling: Beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and honey until light and fluffy. Mix in the sour cream and cocoa powder and then fold in the whipped topping and Toblerone pieces. (Image 2)
- Chill: Spread the filling inside the crust (Image 3). Cover and refrigerate 6 hours or overnight.
- Make The Ganache: Microwave the heavy cream in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until steaming. Pour it over the chocolate chips, stir to cover the chips, and then allow it to set for 5 minutes. Whisk the chocolate and cream together until smooth and completely melted.
- Cover The Cake: Spread the ganache over the cheesecake and allow to cool for 20 minutes (or until cool to the touch). Garnish with whipped topping and Toblerone pieces, optional. (Image 4)
- Slice And Serve: Cut into slices and serve. Enjoy!
Tips For Making Toblerone Cheesecake
- You will need about 3 Toblerone bars for this recipe, almost 2 for inside the cheesecake filling and 1 for decorating the top.
- Ensure your cold ingredients are at room temperature before using them to ensure a smooth and creamy texture. The cream cheese must be at room temperature — cold cream cheese is much harder to beat into a smooth consistency and can result in lumps in your cheesecake filling.
- When beating the cream cheese, sugar, and honey, be sure to mix them thoroughly until the mixture is light and fluffy. This step is crucial for a creamy and well-incorporated filling. Be sure to use a spatula to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl several times so that everything gets well incorporated.
- When chopping the Toblerone chocolate, aim for even-sized pieces. This will distribute the chocolate throughout the cheesecake evenly for a balanced flavor in each bite. Remember that the Toblerone pieces will be within bites of the cheesecake, so don’t keep them too large, or they may be difficult to bite. You also want to avoid tiny, crumbled pieces if possible.
- When making the ganache, ensure the cream is hot enough to melt the chocolate completely. Allow it to sit the full 5 minutes so that the chocolate chips can melt, but don’t let it sit longer, or it may start to cool. Stir the mixture until it’s smooth and glossy before spreading it over the cheesecake.
- Dip a sharp knife in hot water before each cut to achieve clean slices. This will help prevent the cheesecake from sticking to the knife.
How to Store Toblerone Cheesecake
- To Store: Store your Toblerone Cheesecake in the refrigerator, either well covered or in an airtight container, and consume within 3-4 days for best texture and flavor.
- To Freeze: Toblerone Cheesecake can be frozen for up to 2 months and thawed in the refrigerator before serving. Keep in mind that freezing may change the texture of the cheesecake and/or ganache but the flavor should stay wonderful.
