As I had planned, I made these individual portions of cheesecake in disposable containers and I gave one to my husband and asked him to try and let me know if it is good to share on my blog. He loved it !
So as planned, I made around 12 of these Cherry Cheesecake individual portions in disposable containers and gave to school for the event. Then I made few more portions using whipping cream instead of cream cheese ,just to give a twist in recipe and that was an awesome combination too.
Later that day,I made these cheesecake portions in Jar and we devoured these as soon as I finished clicking.
What's interesting about this recipe is that here I have not used Gelatin / Agar Agar(Vegetarian) in this. Its very easy and ready in 15 minutes roughly. Just whip the ingredients together and add layers in jar and serve with compote on top.
- India users can use the KrackJack / Parle G cookies instead They taste awesome when used in this recipe.
- Use the ingredients at room temperature.
- Whip the cream cheese and yogurt with hand mixer or with hand whisk.
- Let the sugar dissolve well but do not over beat the cream cheese mix or till will start to liquify.
- You can arrange all the layers and refrigerate before serving.
