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

I am giving this 5 stars without even tasting it as I tried the layers as I went and YUM! Waiting for it to set now. Nice easy recipe to follow. I added some lemon zest and a little juice to the filling as I love the tang of lemon. Took the previous post suggestions and used half gingernut biccies and half Nice. This recipe has saved my butt today as once a year at my work we do a morning tea for birthdays. My turn comes around and our stove BLEW UP! I love cooking and sharing my creations and this was my time to shine - thank you Jen for giving me a "no bake" showstopper. Aussie strawberries are awesome this time of year and I got mine fresh from the market today. The finished product looks gorgeous! When it is served tomorrow I will try and snap a pic for upload xx :)

Yummy cheesecake, Chef #68960 made this for us and it was lovely. She made the base using ginger nut biscuits and gave the base a lovely flavour. The filling was soft, smooth and delicious and the topping was outstanding. Thank you Jen T for posting the recipe and thank you Chef #68960 for making the recipe for us. Menu #17731
