No Bake Cheesecake<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is delicious and decadent for when you fancy a treat, super easy to make too and doesn't require any baking. Just choose your flavouring, mix the ingredients together, choose your yummy biscuit base, let it set for a few minutes in the fridge and it's done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A delicious dessert for you to enjoy as a treat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quark for Cheesecakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most are put off using quark in recipes as it's quite sour tasting and not pleasant to some on it's own. You will see it in a lot of low calorie savoury dishes as a replacement for cream and it's really is not a great substitute for those as it tastes in no way creamy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However in a cheesecake if you flavour it correctly it can have the same consistency of cream cheese, so is a great alternative for a lower calorie dessert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Granulated Sweetener for Desserts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to sweetener things I mostly just choose to use some calories on honey, maple syrup or brown sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However sometimes you need to bring the calories down quite a bit and when I feel I can do it without affecting the taste I will opt for some granulated sweetener. There is only one type I will use though and that is Erythritol. It is naturally derived, doesn't have that strong aftertaste and can be used like for like with sugar so it's a great swap occasionally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be careful when using other sweeteners as not all are equal, some you will need to use more, some less, so always check the packaging for the sugar to sweetenerr ratio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sweet Freedom Choc Shot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sweet freedom has a great selection of low calories syrups which are 100% natural and add a great flavour to a variety of things from oatmeal, to pancakes etc. They do various flavours of chocolate, as well as some fruit syrup which is a great replacement for golden syrup or honey and them some chocolate spreads also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this Chocolate No Bake Cheesecake, I used the Choc Shot Original<\/strong><\/a>, but any of the flavours would work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make the cheesecake I use a small springform pan (no bigger than 4cm) it just makes it easier to plate the cheesecake when ready. But if you are happy to just eat it from a dish, you can layer it in a similar size dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mmmmmm now just look at that Oreo Chocolate Crumb base!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don't like Oreo cookies? switch this up by using another biscuit\/cookie of choice, just ensure you adjust the values to the one you choose to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
