No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake image

This cheesecake is based on a recipe for No Bake Peach Cheesecake by homegirl. So many thanks go to her for giving me the idea and giving me the "ok" to post my version. I have made the changes necessary so that those of us in New Zealand & Australia can make a similar great dessert. You can also use other fruit & jelly combinations depending on what fruit & jellies are available. Note that the time given does not include chilling time.

Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (250 g) packet plain sweet biscuits (I use Arnotts Nice Biscuits)
125 g butter (melted)
250 g cream cheese
4 tablespoons icing sugar
300 ml cream (whipping cream)
1 3/4 cups water
2 tablespoons cornflour
1 cup sugar
1 (85 g) packet strawberry jelly crystals
1 (400 g) punnet strawberries

Steps:

  • For the base, crumb the biscuits using a food processor and add the melted butter.
  • Reserving 1/3 cup press remaining mix into a 9x13 dish. I like to use a glass dish to show off the layers.
  • For the filling, beat cream cheese and sugar together.
  • Whip the cream until soft peak stage and then fold into cream cheese mixture.
  • Spread over the base and place in fridge to chill.
  • For the topping, put the cornflour, water and sugar in a saucepan and boil until thickened.
  • Stir in the jelly crystals until all are dissolved.
  • Chill until cold and starting to set.
  • Slice strawberries and add to chilled jelly.
  • Spoon over the filling as evenly as possible.
  • Sprinkle the reserved 1/3 cup crumb mix over the top.
  • Refrigerate until jelly has set and you are ready to serve.
  • Cut into squares and remove carefully. I use a fish slice to do this.
  • Serve with some whipped cream on the side or on top of each square if desired.
