I love strawberries and make the best use when they are available. The No bake strawberry cheese cake is a delight to serve. Make it for the V-Day or any time when you wish. Check out the other strawberry recipes shared earlier. Strawberry Mojito, Strawberry Chia Souffle, Strawberry Ice Cream are ideal for celebrations. Strawberry Jam tastes good with bread or chapathi.

The making of strawberry cheese cake is easy but requires a little planning. Make sure you have read the recipe rightly instead of messing with the ingredients. Moreover, a lot of time is spent in the process. Cream cheese is easily available in big cities but people in small town do not have access to many things. Secondly, Agar agar needs to be cooked on a slow flame for a few minutes. It will not dissolve by itself. Thirdly, It is best to use fresh strawberries but you can use frozen ones too.

No Bake Strawberry Cheese Cake

Ingredients:

15 digestive biscuits (I used marie biscuits)
3 tbsp butter
12 strawberries
3 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1teaspoon lemon juice
1 cup hung curd (1 cup= 240 ml)
1 cup cottage cheese
1 tablespoon agar agar
1/4 cup water

Method:

1. Grind the biscuits. Melt the butter and mix it in it. Take a glass bowl and line it evenly with the biscuit mixture. Put it in the freezer to set.
2. Wash and make a puree of the strawberries. Boil it i with sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice and make a lump free mixture. The cottage cheese should be soft. Put it in warm water and keep it aside for sometime.
3. Cut the agar agar into small pieces. Put it in water and heat it on a low flame, keep stirring. The strands melt and form a homogenous mixture. Keep it aside.
4. Now, blend the sugar, hung curd, cottage cheese along with the strawberry mixture and agar agar.
5. Take the lined bowl out from the freezer and spread this mixture over it.
6. Allow it to set for two hours in the refrigerator.
