Non bake Cheesecake

This is a recipe that is non bake and tastes superb. Adapted from my colleague Celest, here is my version of it with lotsa fruits on top :) Easy to bake and no frills.





All you need


150g digestive biscuits, crushed
8 tbsp butter, melted
250g Philadelphia cream cheese
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp gelatine, dissolved in 4 tbsp warm water
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup thickened cream
Some cut fruits


Crust

1. Mix biscuit and butter
2. Line base and sides of cake tin (about 8") with cling wrap and press the mixture into the base
3. Freeze for an hour


Cheesecake

1. Blend cream cheese, lemon juice and gelatine and sugar with a mixer
2. Whip cream until soft peaks form then stir into mixture
3. Remove cake tin from freezer then pour mixture in
4. Spread evenly and chill for about an hour till harden
5. Top with fruits and serve





Verdict: Everyone loves the crusty base :)

That looks delicious Missy! I've been a bit absent lately but I love your non bake cheesecake. That is infact that cheesecake that is made most often here in the Netherlands and I love the easiness of making this. Looks good!

Mr and Mrs Bee: for cream cheese i use Philadelphia cream cheese.. it comes in a bar and for the thickened cream, i use yoghurt instead, for health reasosn :)

.. hope that helps.
