Ingredients:

  • 200g of ginger biscuits
  • 50g of butter (melted)

For the Filling

  • 300g of light soft cheese
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 150g Greek yoghurt
  • 227g strawberries
  • 3 tbsp of strawberry jam
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 3 tbsp of lemon juice

Instructions:

Step 1-Take the ginger biscuits and place them in a food bag. Crush them until they are in fine pieces. Once you are happy that the biscuits have been crushed in to fine pieces, add them to a mixing bowl along with the 50g of butter which should have been melted. Stir well until the biscuits and butter have combined.

Step 2-Add the biscuit mixture to a fluted flan tin and ensure the biscuit mixture is firmly pressed down against the base of the tin. You can do this by using a palette knife or a spoon. Once this is done, place it in the fridge to chill while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Step 3-In another mixing bowl, add the light soft cheese, the greek yoghurt, caster sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice and whisk until they are well combined and the mixture looks creamy. Add this on to the biscuit base which has been chilling in the fridge and smooth the top. Ensure it rests in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Step 4-Add the strawberry jam to a saucepan and heat until it turns to a liquid consistency. Allow the mixture to cool for a bit.

Step 5-If you are using a loose base fluted flan tin, remove the base of the tin and the strawberry cheesecake tart will easily slide out. If not, carefully remove the tart from the edge of the tin using a palette knife and gradually ease it out of the cake tin. Cut the tops off the strawberrys and slice in to quarters. Place the strawberrys on top of this delicious Strawberry cheesecake tart before coating the top of the tart with the strawberry jam from earlier!

Step 6-That’s all the work done, now you can serve your mum this delicious treat this Mother’s Day, and we’re sure she will love this fantastic Strawberry cheesecake tart recipe!
