Margarita Cheesecake Pie Easy No Bake

---

Totally delicious and refreshing, this creamy margarita cheesecake pie pairs beautifully with a spicy mexican meal of tacos, enchiladas, rice and beans. Very easy prep, with no baking required, so it's also a wonderful make-ahead dessert! Cook time is chill time. P.s. I sometimes cheat and use a prepared graham cracker crust. I hope you enjoy!!
