Creamy ,light and delicious no bake blueberry cheesecake. Creamy cheesecake topped with sweet blueberry compote.
What i love about this dessert is, it is simply to make, delicious and best of all no baking is involved.
My no bake cheesecake starts off with a mixture of crushed digestive biscuits, melted butter and brown sugar for the crust. For the filling I mixed mascarpone cheese, cream cheese and freshly whipped cream. I love the rich flavour mascarpone adds cheesecake. Pour the filling into the crust and leave to set in the fridge for four hours or overnight. Before you serve you can whip up the bluberry compote. The blueberry compote is also simple and easy to make. All you need for this delicious sauce is some blueberries, juice from a fresh lemon, sugar, water and corn flour. The blueberry compote totally pairs with the rich and creamy cheesecake.
Perfect for a dinner party or any special occasion. I love how effortless making this cheesecake is . It is definitely a crowd pleaser and will have everyone thinking you spent hours making it .
