How to Make Amy's Uncooked Easy Peasy Cheesecake
- Crush 150g biscuits (digestive, chocolate chip, or ginger) into fine crumbs.
- Melt 75g butter and add to the crushed biscuits, mixing until all crumbs are evenly coated.
- Press the mixture into the bottom and slightly up the sides of an 8-inch loose-bottom springform tin.
- Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat 2 (227g each) blocks of cream cheese until smooth and softened (about 1-2 minutes).
- Add one (397g) can of sweetened condensed milk and beat until well combined.
- Stir in 2-3 tablespoons of lemon juice, mixing until the filling begins to thicken.
- Taste and adjust lemon juice as needed.
- Pour the filling over the prepared biscuit base and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to set completely.
- For the topping: Prepare your choice of fresh fruit (e.g., 200g berries).
- Option 1: Arrange fresh fruit directly on top of the set cheesecake.
- Option 2: Gently poach your fruit (e.g., blueberries or raspberries) in a small saucepan with a little water (approx 50ml) until softened. Thicken the remaining poaching liquid with 1 tsp cornflour to create a glaze and drizzle over the fruit. Arrange the fruit on top of the cheesecake.
