I promised that I will be back today to share this awesome strawberry recipe with you girls and I'm keeping that promise!
Hehe.
Need to make up for my absence for the whole of last week!
This recipe is definitely worth a try because:
1) It's super simple to make, you don't even have to follow the recipe THAT closely!
2) It tastes ridiculously and unbelievably good despite how simple it is to make.
3) It looks super photogenic and suitable for Valentine's Day, red and full of love!
4) It does not require sophisticated baking tools...
DUHHH it does not even require you to go near an oven.
5) Have I mentioned how good this tastes??!
Okay yes, I did.
How to make:
Strawberry Cheesecake Cups/Jars
You'll be needing strawberries, of course.
Cook the strawberries with sugar in a small saucepan.
Awesome strawberry sauce in just a few minutes!
Crush the digestive biscuits into small breadcrumb-like bits.
Mix with melted butter and press onto the bottom of your cup/jar!
You need cream cheese and plain yoghurt for the cheese filling!
I used Bulla's Lite' n Healthy plain yoghurt!
Mix well with cream cheese and vanilla extract.
Layer cream cheese mixture onto digestive biscuit base and refrigerate.
Pour the strawberry sauce upon serving.
And now,
the exact recipe!
