Description:
I took the cheesecake recipe that Iri posted (which was delicious btw) for Lee's cooking challenge and adapted it from a pineapple flavoured one to raspberry.
This turned out really well ;)
Ingredients:
Base
1 pkt biscuits (digestives or superwine)
100g butter
¼ tsp cinnamon
3 tsp brown sugar
Topping
3 tsp gelatine
½ cup hot water
60g cream cheese
3 tbsp sugar
½ tsp vanilla
300gms fresh or frozen raspberries
150ml cream
Directions:
Crush biscuits finely. Stir in melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Press mixture into tin. Chill in the fridge until needed.
Dissolve gelatine in hot water and cool. In the foodprocessor cream sugar, vanilla, and cream cheese. Add half of the raspberries and continue mixing until smooth.Then stir in the gelatine. Whip cream and fold into mixture. Pour onto base and chill to set.
The remaining raspberries can be used to decorate the top of the cheesecake, once chilled, or served on the side.
The Original
Instead of the raspberries you will need a 450g tin crushed pineapple and 1 tbsp lemon juice. After you have creamed the sugar and the cream cheese add the lemon juice, pineapple and gelatine, stir well then fold in the cream.
It was extremely yummy. But then Rasberries are my fave of all berries
ReplyDeleteThis sounds good too!
ReplyDeleteit was well tasty
ReplyDeleteLook you've gone and done it again lol another one of my all time favourite desserts, only thing is I havnt got a food processor (story of my life lol), will have to make do with the cheesecake at work and shop bought ones.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely need to visit Halifax, Nova Scotia! Bring your apron and pie pan! Lmfao
ReplyDeleteYou can use a regular mixer to cream the sugar & cream cheese Alli & use a blender to puree the raspberries & then combine. (I just had less cleaning up to do using the one appliance)
ReplyDeleteUmmm Hell NO! I saw the list of requirements you were looking for....think I'll pass, more for your sake than mine.....you couldn't afford the vino bill! lol
ReplyDeletelol the raspberry version looks yummy too! (I have only ever used a mixer because I don't have a food processor either).
ReplyDeleteYes it was! I didn't realise how easy they were to make, I've only ever tried the baked cheesecake version and always not been very successful.
ReplyDeleteIf it wasn't easy I wouldn't be making it, hehehe
ReplyDeleteEither flavour would do me! Yum
ReplyDeletelol aint got a mixer of blender either Ang so Im up a creek without a paddle as they say lol
ReplyDeleteYou have got a mixer, It's brand name is Tony and the mixing attachment is his arm with a whisk or fork at the end lmao
ReplyDeleteThink he needs patenting before he starts though lol
ReplyDeleteat least i could eat this and not kill myself in the process lol
ReplyDeletehmmmmm...dis looks good...I'll test this pink yummy recipe at our mini resto...
