Ingredients

For the crust

155 grams digestive biscuits

1 tbs caster sugar

55 grams melted unsalted butter

For the filling

1 tsp unflavored gelatin

55 ml cold water

8 ounces/226 grams Cream Cheese, Softened

50 grams caster sugar

240 ml sweetened condensed milk

150 ml natural yogurt

8 fresh strawberries, hulled, finely chopped

Directions

To prepare the crust:

Line the bottoms and sides 9 inch spring-form pans with parchment paper. Finely crushed the biscuits with a rolling pin.

Combine the butter and sugar into the crumbs to form a moist sandy texture. Press the crumb mixture evenly over the bottom of the prepared pans. Refrigerate the crusts while preparing the filling.

To prepare the filling;

Place the water in a small saucepan. Soften the gelatin in the water . Stir the gelatin mixture over low heat until dissolved.

Blend the cream cheese in a food processor until smooth and creamy. Add the sweetened condensed milk, sugar and natural yogurt and blend well.

With the food processor running, slowly pour the hot melted gelatin mixture through the feed tube and into the cream cheese mixture in a thin stream. Continue to process to ensure the gelatin is very well blended. Transfer the cream cheese mixture to a bowl and stir in the strawberries. Spoon the cream cheese mixture over the crust.

Refrigerate for 3 hours or until the cheesecakes are firm. Remove the pan and the parchment paper from the cheesecakes and transfer to serving plates. Top with strawberries before serving.
