When chocolate is all melted, add the crushed biscuit and stir.........

Step 7 of 19

While still warm, transfer to the loose bottomed flan tin and using the back of your palm level it. Allow it to cool in the fridge.

Step 8 of 19

Ready!

Step 9 of 19

In a bowl, add the mascarpone,zest,lime juice and sugar.........

Step 10 of 19

Mix and notice how much softer the mascarpone will turn because of the lemon juice. A good sign that all is well. Give it a quick taste to ensure the sugar is to your liking.

Pour onto the biscuit base....

Step 12 of 19

Level it.

Step 13 of 19

Wack it in the fridge and if u r in a rush against time, the freezer will do!

Step 14 of 19

Get a head start and clean the spatula u were using to stir and have a preview of what u will be enjoying shortly! : )

Step 15 of 19

No Wastage! Ok?

Step 16 of 19

While the cheesecake is setting and cooling down, take your strawberries, hull them then cut into 2. Cheese cake is ready to demould when it's firm and all you have to do is slide it out th flan tin.

Step 17 of 19

Ready! Sprinkle icing sugar or like I did, use cocoa powder but sparingly. It should serve 8-10 but I guarantee every one will be asking for more!

Lol sorry. I was like why aren't people posting the ingredients on any if these recipes?!!!! Lol so glad I know about that now. I will let u know how it turns out tho!

Heather Rettberg 12 months ago

@ Heather, hihihihi! For a moment there you got me all confused wondering what it is I had missed! Phew. Anyway please let me know the feedback, I have a facebook page that I also posted this recipe and the people who have tried it are saying how they love the cheesecake.

Raphael Ndaiga (author) 12 months ago

Oh!!!! I didn't even know that supplies button existed!!! Sorry :) and thank you!!! Can't wait to try this!!!!

Heather Rettberg 12 months ago

@ Heather, the quantities are indicated on the supplies section. What other info do u need please?

Raphael Ndaiga (author) 12 months ago

I need to know how much of each ingredient ! Please!??????

Heather Rettberg 12 months ago

@ Tarik, no it does not. Mascarpone works best with this recipe. Heather, Michelle was suggestin to use one of the two cheese separately and not together in making one cheese cake. I say we stick to the mascarpone coz the intended devine taste is attained by using it. :-)

Raphael Ndaiga (author) 12 months ago

Does mascarpone replace really well cream cheese ?

T D 12 months ago

Hey Michelle! It is a yummy dessert and no Im not in the US. I have googled for mascarpone cheese brands in the US and have seen some brands you would recognise. Mascarpone is an Italian cheese that makes the Tiramisu(which u must know) The cheese is creamy and nice but you could try the cream cheese and if it works then you will have an option should you not have mascarpone. The beauty of the recipe is the simplicity and the results, devine! hope you get to enjoy it
