NO BAKE LIME CHEESECAKE + RECIPE - SAVORING ITS SCRUMPTIOUSNESS !!!

Hello Steemit Friends!

Today I would like to share a recipe to all those who have sweet tooth. If all ingredients are prepared beforehand, you´re almost done halfway with the process. You do not need to bake anything so you won´t be needing your oven. This is so scrumptious but something must be clarified first before you make this cake.

IF YOU HAVE SUGAR ISSUES

1...For those of you who are avoiding sugar, you can replace the recipe´s sugar with sugar substitute in powder form. For my Baking recipes I use Stevia powder to replace the sugar with a ratio of 1:1. Stevia is a plant base sweetener that is lighter than sugar and since sugar is heavier than Stevia´, here is what I do to get that ratio: ...measure the sugar in terms of tablespoons. The same number of sugar in spoons shall be used to measure the stevia powder for this recipe.

2... There are diet cookies that have less sugar or look for shortbread cookies instead of the normal buttercup cookies. Buttercup cookies of course, contain more fat .... So to those who are under diet, simply taste a small piece to savor this delicious and scrumptious cheesecake.

NO BAKE LIME CHEESESCAKE

Ingredients :

200 g Buttercup cookies/ biscuits ( or diet shortbread cookies)
120 g butter or margarine
1 pack Vanilla sugar
5 pcs Gelatine squares ( I used Dr. Oetker´s)
500 g curd cheese
250 g Mascarpone cheese
100g icing sugar or 10 tbsp sugar substitute.
2 tbsp cherry water
2 lime or 1 fresh lemon
250 g whipping cream
1 cup various berries

Preparation:

1... place the cookies in a freezer bag or sturdy bag and by means of rolling pin or bottle, crush the cookies so they resemble crumbs. Melt the butter and pour it into the crumbs , add the vanilla sugar. Mix all ingredients lightly with your hand, set aside.

2...It is better to line a springform of about 26 cm in diameter with a wax or baking paper, then distribute the pressed cookie mixture into the form evenly & pressing the mixture hard in place. . Keep the from in the fridge and cool it for about an hour to set the mixture a bit harder.

3... Place the gelatine in a container with cold water to cover it and soak it for 5 minutes.

4.Mix the curd Cheese, Mascarpone Cheese and sugar + 2 tbsp cherry water evenly. Wash and dry the lime ( organic lemon could be used instead) and grate its rind.. press to get the juice. set aside.

5... Remove the gelatine and squeeze it to remove the water and slowly heat it until it gets dissolved, then add the lime/lemon juice, add 5 tbsp. of the cheese mixture by & by and then mix this to the Cheese mixture evenly with your mixer.

6... Beat the whipping cream, fold this together with the grated lime/lemon rind into the cheese mixture using wooden spoon...mix thoroughly.

7... Distribute the cheese mixture into the prepared Springform evenly and refrigerate for about 3 hours..

When cheesecake is already stiff in form, remove the cake carefully from the springform and arrange on a platter.

TOPPINGS:

You can add toppings like berries or chocolate... for the berries, you have to remove excess juice if you are using frozen ones. Put the frozen berries in a sift, then drain its juice til the dripping of liquid stops.
For the choco liquid topping, simply melt a small plain chocolate bar with 3 tbsps fresh milk, mix chocolate properly til well blended and pour this on top of the now cold cheesecake .

Add the berries and pour more of the chocolate liquid as in the first photo above.

I sure hope you would like this recipe and that someday you would try making this.
