No Bake Berry Cheesecake

-
We all know Summer is here now and to be honest these days the weather is trying to boil us.
However I have something sweet for all my sweet tooth babies out there, but it’s also a refreshing no-bake recipe.
I think you may have guessed what it is by the title by now, but I really love this easy berry cheesecake. I love it, because I tried to add sweetness without adding too much sugar, so it’s also a slightly healthier version.

Ingredients:
  • 200 gr petit beurre biscuits 
  • 500 gr mascarpone cheese
  • 70 gr butter
  • 7 dates
  • 150 gr blueberry yogurt 
  • 120 gr raspberries 
  • 2tbsp of powdered sugar 
  • blueberries 
Preparation:
First we make the crust. Take a food processor or a blender and crush the biscuits into fine biscuit pieces (not too fine, so it still has the texture). Add 4 dates and the melted butter and process them together until evenly combined.
Now we have the base done and proceed to flatten it completely in the bottom of the pan we’re using.
[ You can make a healthier version by making the base half biscuits and half ground oats ]

Then we’ll continue with the cheese part. 
First the yogurt mixture.. ▶️The yogurt mixture will be yogurt, 3 tbsp mascarpone, raspberries and 3 dates blended together. 

You can also combine everything together, but I took it a step further and made it an ombré cheesecake. 
*If you combine everything together, check the texture and figure out if you‘ll need any gelatin to keep it’s shape. The ombré way doesn’t need any added gelatin.*
Start with half of the remaining mascarpone, add the sugar and spread it carefully on top of the biscuit layer. This is the thickest layer (texture-wise), so it will be hard to spread and scooping it evenly at first may help you a lot. 

Then take 2/3 of the remaining mascarpone and mix it with 1/3 yogurt mixture. This will be the next layer.
Take the last portion of mascarpone and mix it with 2/3 yogurt mixture. 

This is the top layer and you can make some swirls with a spoon and some more dabs of yogurt ob top. Have fun with that !!🙈😊
Let it set in the fridge overnight or at least 4 hours and then top it off with some fresh blueberries. 

 I believe this is one of the best cheesecakes I‘ve ever created, because of how beautiful and slightly lighter it is. 
 ENJOY!! 💕

 The Great Lent has begun and if you’re christian chances are you know what this is. Long story short, The Great Lent or The Great Fast officially begins on Clean Monday, seven weeks before Pascha ( Easter ) and runs for 40 contiguous days. It has its religion-related purposes, but personally I do it to feel better with myself, to eat healthier (most of the time), to eat mostly vegan meals (if you’re interested in knowing the benefits of eating vegan you can look it up by yourself, because I don’t want to force & influence anyone) and to expend my taste palette by trying new recipes.  The foods abstained from are meat, fish, eggs and dairy products, wine, and oil. According to some traditions, only olive oil is abstained from; in others, all vegetable oils. In my house we use all kinds of vegetable oils including olive oil, except the last week of the Lent. So basically you have to eat vegan, but with some exceptions such as: mussels, prawns, squid and cuttlefish. (beca...

Chocolate covered tiramisu LOVE BITES

I was laying on my bed last night and all of a sudden I remembered that this week is the “ Valentine’s Day ️  ” so I had to do some kind of Valentine Treat. It was a bit difficult to think the perfect recipes right away, but an ingredient was definitely going to be CHOCOLATE. As a chocolate lover (in my head) love is equal to chocolate or the other way around.  So I came up with two ideas, but for now one of them will remain a secret. Today I prepared my CHOCOLATE COVERED TIRAMISU LOVE BITES. These are the perfect treat and a perfect gift (if you haven’t figured it out till now ), yet so easy to prepare.  Ingredients:  1.5 cups mascarpone cheese  3 cups of roughly crumbled biscuits  3 tbsp of amaro liqueur  2 tbsp of almond milk  2 tbsp of cocoa powder  3-4 tbsp of powdered sugar (taste to adjust it to your likings)  1/2 tsp of vanilla extract  For the chocolate cover:  200 gr of chocolate  2 tb...
