    The base is made from Aldi's German style "spekulatius" spiced biscuits ground up then mixed with melted butter. The cheese cake layer is a mix of cream cheese and cream with a teaspoon of gelatin. Topping is passion fruit pulp (comes in a can). Overall it was yummy but I learnt not to freeze it because when it defrosts the biscuit base goes soggy. I was just in too much of a hurry to eat it!

    Thank you! The kids loved them :)

    Fairly straight forward if you have previously made cheesecakes. I use a butter scoop to create the cheesecake balls, roll them in the graham crackers and then pipe in the raspberry sauce :)

    Make the Graham Cracker Crust
    Bake NY Cheesecake
    Make Raspberry sauce
    After the cheesecake has cooled, scoop out the balls, roll in the crust and place on a tray
    Chill in the fridge for 60 minutes
    Fill with Raspberry sauce


    Raspberry sauce
    • 2 cups Raspberries
    • Juice from 1 lemon
    • 1 tbl sugar
    • 1/2 cup of water

    Add the water, lemon juice and sugar to a pot. Just want to make sure the sugar dissolves and then add the raspberries. Bring to boil and then reduce for 25 minutes. Pour the sauce through a wire strainer to remove the seeds.

    Graham cracker crust and then break it up in a bowl
    • 1.5 cups gram crackers
    • 1/3 cup butter
    • 1/4 cup sugar

    Preheat oven to 350˚
    Mix together and put in 9" deep pie pan
    Cook for 14 minutes

    NY Cheesecake
    • 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
    • 4 eggs, room temperature
    • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
    • 1 Cup of sugar
    • 1 Teaspoon cream of tartar. You can substitute fresh lemon juice if you do not have it.


    In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until smooth.
    Blend in the eggs, 1 tablespoon of vanilla, and cream of tartar. Pour over the pie crust.
    Bake in preheated oven until the center is set, about 50 minutes. Allow to cool on counter for 1-2 hours.

    Less a meal, and more like a midday snack:
    Tomato pesto mug cake ftw.
    This thing makes an amazing post workout food.
