Make a biscuit base with crushed biscuits and melted butter, press into a dish and chill in the fridge.
For the filling
Soften a pot of cream cheese, mix in a pot of either creme fraiche or mascarpone, juice and zest of a lemon and 2 tbls of honey (or sweetener) Pour into biscuit base and chill for at least 4 hours, (better if you can chill overnight) this makes a nice light cheesecake and you can vary the flavours to suit your taste

denise41, the following is the recipe that I very successfully made my first ever cheesecake with. It's always popular whenever I have made it and is nicest at least 1 day old. It freezes well too.

HEAVENLY CHEESECAKE
Crumb Crust:
1 packet plain biscuits, crushed
170g butter, melted
Combine the biscuits and butter, then spread evenly into a 22•5cm (9”) springform tin and up the sides. Chill while preparing the Filling:
1 tbsp gelatine
250g cream cheese
¾ cup sugar
3 eggs
¼ cup each of water, lemon juice and milk
pinch salt
Blend the gelatine with the water and lemon juice, then set it aside. Combine the cream cheese, ½ cup sugar, beaten egg yolks, milk and salt. Cook over simmering water for 10 minutes, then blend in the gelatine mixture. Cool the mixture.
Beat 3 egg whites, gradually adding the remaining ¼ cup sugar, until soft peaks form. Fold this into cheese mixture and pour the filling carefully into crumb crust. Refrigerate.
If desired, pile whipped cream on top and serve as a dessert or as a cake with coffee.

Hope that helps. :-))

This is my GO TO recipe for any unbaked cheesecake and it can be flavoured with anything:
500g cream cheese (room temp)
250ml Fresh cream (unwhipped)
1/3 C Castor Sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla Essence (leave out if making a citrus flavour)

Beat cream cheese and sugar til smooth. Add cream gradually with vanilla. Mix again til smooth. Now add your flavours: lemon zest, chopped up cookies n creme biscuits, melted choc, coffee.... pour into a biscuit base (250g biscuits mixed with 120g melted butter) and set in fridge.

This is the only on my husband will eat. It contains no gelatine.

250g packet Arrowroot biscuit
125g butter melted (you may need more if you use dry biscuits)
Crush biscuits, add melted butter and press into a quiche pan and up the sides too.

Filling
250g traditional cream cheese at room temp
1 tin condensed milk
100ml lemon juice.

Beat the cream cheese till there are no lumps. Add condensed milk and beat together. Add lemon juice and mix in well. Pour into the base and chill well. I would serve with fresh passionfruit but berry coulis works as well or simply yum with just some cream.
