Title: No-bake Lime Cheescake
Post by: zebraa on June 10, 2012, 03:00:09 pm: Such an easy, simple recipe. Easy to make GF with GF biscuits and with buying the right cream cheese and biscuits, easy to make it non-preservative and non-additive.

110g unsalted butter
200g plain biscuits
375g sweetened condensed milk
400g cream cheese
80ml (1/3c) lime juice
10 ml (2 tsp) vanilla essence

TMX butter at 80 deg, S2 for a few minutes till melted
add biscuits and slowly go up to S5 till the right consistancy. Just keep an eye on it.

remove from TMX and pop into greased 20cm tart tin. Press down.

Clean TMX with paper towl and pop in the s.c.milk and cream cheese. S5 till smooth. Add lime juice and vanilla essence and do S5 till smooth again.

Pop onto base and put in fridge for 4 hours or overnight.

So quick and easy! And good.

astarra - Made these minus the lime juice and adding lemon curd.....what can I say but YUM!! I found the base quite crumbly, even after adding extra butter. I doubled it all to get enough for 24 individuals....well....I got 45 individuals!! We don't mind tho, they are so yum!
Made 24 of these in muffin tins today using 2x250gm blocks of cream cheese, 1 tin condensed milk, 150gm lemon curd, (and the vanilla too of course) for the filling, but had to triple the base to get enough.

Post by: astarra on June 11, 2012, 12:27:50 am: Would this recipe work just as well with lemons??? I have been wanting an unbaked cheesecake, but looking for one without egg - (raw egg a big no-no while preg). and I love lemon cheesecake. and I'm not a sweet tooth - lemon stuff is as sweet as i can cope with. Thanx in advance... :)

Post by: Halex on June 11, 2012, 12:33:52 am: Thanks Uni, i have all the ingredients to make the condensed milk ;D

Astarra, I am sure lemons would work, I often swap.

Post by: fundj&e on June 11, 2012, 12:43:34 am: i just looked at my recipe and i used 100g of lemon curd

Post by: judydawn on June 11, 2012, 12:58:59 am: Did you swirl it through or mix it completely through Uni - maybe not enough contrast in the colours for the swirl effect to happen?

Post by: fundj&e on June 11, 2012, 01:11:52 am: i just mixed it in JD

Post by: astarra on February 13, 2013, 11:55:12 pm: Am going to make these (using lemon curd instead of lime juice) today - anyone have any idea how many it will serve? TIA :D
Title: Re: No-bake Lime Cheescake
Post by: judydawn on February 14, 2013, 04:17:55 am: Astarra, going by the fact that you use a 20cm tart tin, I drew out a circle the same as that and it can be either divided into 6 large pieces or 8 smaller ones.

I was too impatient :-[ to try it as the filling mix was yum, so in the photo it is still a bit unset but I will still post it....
