My entry for this week’s competition is called a “no bake” mulberry cheesecake. It is special because I got to pick the mulberry’s fresh from a tree on our friend’s farm in Agios Georgios. These friends have just moved to Cyprus from South Africa and they have many delicious fruit trees on the property. These very tasty mulberries went straight into the freezer to keep fresh.

INGREDIENTS:

1 packet Tennis biscuits from South Africa work best for tarts but are not always easy to find so I use coconut biscuits as an alternative
2 tubs Philadelphia Cream cheese
1 tin Condensed milk
1/4 cup fresh Lemon juice
1 teaspoon Vanilla essence


Crush biscuits with some butter and line in a springform pan


Beat cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk on medium speed until smooth and creamy

Beat in lemon juice and vanilla extract.

Pour cream cheese mixture into prepared pie crust.
Refrigerate for 3 hours or until firm.
Add frozen mulberries when ready to serve.

Gotta try one of those when I'm in Cyprus Les - well done - @lesbento

Tx @lizzvox, see you soon in Cyprus x

Uh-oh, this is definitely something @pandamama would enjoy. You used the magic word --- cheesecake =D!

Condensed milk always makes desserts wonderful. Add cream cheese and fresh berries then you have something magical. The crust looks perfect too. I am sure you made a crowd happy with your dessert.

Thanks for your delicious raw food entry @lesbento!
