whipped cream and cream cheese become firm or should I try the one I

gelatin? *Thanks!

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
It would depend on if there are eggs in it (you could always use the
pasteurized or homogenized or whatever they are) - and how many eggs
in the ratio of eggs to cream cheese. Basically, cream cheese if
mixed at room temperature, will get semi-solid when refrigerated again
- but again, it depends on the amount of whipped cream, sour cream,
eggs, etc. that are in it.
She's talking about no-bake cheesecake. I doubt anyone makes
uncooked cheesecake with raw eggs.

I make one just using cream cheese and whipped double cream (which you fold together), the cream is thick enough to hold its' shape once refrigerated. No gelatin required!
