Mini passion fruit no bake cheesecakes
Description
The crust is prepared by blending cookies or graham crackers into fine crumbs, then mixed with melted butter to form a moist, sandy base pressed into muffin liners. The filling combines cream cheese, mascarpone, and sweetened condensed milk whipped until smooth and thickened with lemon juice. Passion fruit pulp adds bright, tropical flavor and slight acidity that balances the creaminess.
Once assembled, the mini cheesecakes chill in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours to set. They can be topped with whipped cream before serving, adding extra richness and decoration. Their individual size makes them easy to serve and ideal for portion control.
Ingredients
- 200 g (7.05oz) cookies or Graham crackers
- 1/3 cup butter melted
For the no bake cheesecake filling
- 1 cup (250g) cream cheese room temperature
- 1 cup (250g) mascarpone room temperature
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk (385g/13.5oz)
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 1/3 cup passion fruit pulp
Instructions
- Place cookies/crackers in the bowl of a food processor and process into fine crumbs. Pour in the melted butter and blend until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Line a muffin pan with paper liners and add a few spoonfuls of crumbs into the base of each liner. Press down and flatten with the back of a spoon and set aside.
- To make the filling, combine room temperature cream cheese, mascarpone, condensed milk and lemon juice in a bowl and whip with electric beaters for 2 minutes or until thick and smooth.
- Beat in the passion fruit (you can strain out the seeds if you prefer). Fill each liner with cheesecake mixture and add a swirl of passion fruit to the top of each cheesecake (optional).
- Allow the cheesecakes to set in the fridge for at least 12 hours but ideally overnight.
- Top with whipped cream and serve.
