Ingredients
1 cup biscuit crumbs
4 Tablespoons melted butter
500g Philly cream cheese - softened
¼ cup sugar
3 tsp gelatine dissolved in:
1/3 cup hot water
2 tablespoons strawberry jam
200g plain yoghurt or 1 cup slightly whipped cream
½ cup strawberry jam, extra (optional)
Method
Combine the biscuit crumbs and melted butter and press into the base of a spring-form pan. Chill while you prepare the filling.
Melt the 2 tablespoons of jam in the microwave or in a saucepan and stir into the yoghurt/cream, mixing well.
Beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the yoghurt mixture.
Dissolve the gelatine into the hot water and add to the cheese mixture.
Spoon the mixture into the biscuit base.
Optional - Soften the extra ½ cup of jam in the microwave or in a saucepan. Swirl through the cheesecake mixture.
Refrigerate for a couple of hours til set firm. Then remove it from the tin, slice into portions.
NOTE: Experiment with jam flavour to suit your own tastes. Same goes with the biscuit crumbs, try chocolate, butterscotch or just plain!
