Cheesecakes are a delicious dessert that never fails to hit. So, instead of baking a cake this year, why don’t you incorporate some creamy, cheesecake goodness into your big day?
When you think of the words ‘birthday cake’ and ‘cheesecake’ in the same sentence, this dessert probably matches the image conjured up in your mind.
On top of a flaky sugar cookie base, this straightforward birthday cake cheesecake is luxuriously smooth and sprinkled with all-natural, dye-free funfetti sprinkles. The rainbow colors are so pretty to look at, and the flavor is even better!
This dessert is smooth, rich, delectable, and pretty simple to create at home. If you’re looking for a simple, rainbow-colored dessert to make for a friend, this is the perfect recipe for you.
Next up, we have a cheesecake recipe that is perfect for any person’s birthday, no matter their age.
All you need for this recipe are the typical ingredients required for a classic cheesecake, along with some vibrant colored food coloring. Although, you could use chocolate instead of the rainbow colors for the lettering – it’s your call!
This recipe does require the use of a specific mold with the words ‘Happy Birthday’ inside, but this is not technically necessary.
If you don’t have this mold at home, you could always use some icing to create the letters, or mold the letters out of leftover batter.
This dessert is the perfect hybrid of a cheesecake and a birthday cake, rather than being a birthday cake-themed cheesecake.
The Funfetti Cheesecake Cake consists of two thick layers of funfetti-packed sponge cake, with a generous amount of creamy, cheesecake filling spread in between. The exterior is also covered with cheesecake-flavored buttercream.

Does the birthday boy/girl in question absolutely loveOreo cookies? That’s a pretty stupid question… after all, who doesn’t love Oreo cookies?
