- 150g unsalted butter, melted
- 1 x 250g punnet strawberries, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup redcurrant jelly, warmed
- extra fresh strawberries to decorate
- Filling

- 1 x 250g packet light cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup caster sugar

Method1 Grease a 22cm-round springform cake tin.
2 Remove and discard cream filling from biscuits. Process biscuits until finely crushed. Add butter; process until combined. Press mixture over base and three-quarters of the way up the side of prepared tin. Refrigerate while preparing Filling.
3 To make the filling heat cream cheeses, sugar, vanilla and cream in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until combined. Stir in chocolate.
4 Pour Filling into biscuit crust; place tin on an oven tray.
5 Cook in a moderate oven, 180oC, for about 1 hour or until mixture is set. Cool cheesecake in oven with door ajar. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
6 Before serving, top cheesecake with strawberries; brush with warm jelly. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
'coz I've never added eggs to make my cheesecakes and by the way never ever cook it in oven.
I'll nevertheless give it a burl.
