No-bake cheesecake crusts are typically designed to be made without baking because they have a higher fat content from ingredients like melted butter. Baking such a crust can lead to sogginess, as the butter can melt too much and cause the crumbs to absorb excessive moisture from the cheesecake filling. The idea behind a no-bake crust is to let it firm up in the refrigerator, allowing the butter to solidify and hold the crumbs together without the need for baking. This method helps maintain the desired texture of the crust and prevents it from becoming soggy.
