Instructions
Make The Syrup Glaze:
- Add all of the ingredients for the glaze to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Then drop the heat to low and simmer for 6 minutes until it thickens slightly. How thick the syrup glaze is you'll be able to see once it gets cold. NOTE: Don't stir the syrup while it simmers, let the sugar dissolve on its own. If necessary shake the saucepan a bit to help any sugar crystals that have remained on the sides of the saucepan to move to the center.
- Let cool down to room temperature and then place in the fridge to cool even further while you prepare the cheesecake.
Make The Base:
- Add the cookies to a food processor and blend until finely crumbled.
- Add to a mixing bowl and mix together with the melted butter. Use your hands to do the mixing as this will ensure the butter spreads evenly.
- Transfer the cookie mixture to a round 10-inch non-stick Springform pan. Press with your hands to form an even and smooth cookie base.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour.
For The Cream:
- Add the cream cheese to your electric mixer's bowl. With the whisk attachment on beat over medium speed for at least 5 minutes until very smooth and creamy.
- Add the icing sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
- Then add the Greek yogurt and keep beating for 2-3 minutes more.
- Then add the whipping cream in slowly. Keep beating for a couple of minutes until it thickens. You should be able to see the traces of the whisk on the cream clearly. In other words, it should look like a real thick whipped cream.
- Remove the pan from the fridge and add the cream on top of the base. Spread it evenly and smoothen it with a spoon.
- Cover the pan with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours or ideally overnight.
For The Topping:
- Cut the strawberries into thin slices about ½ cm thick (¼ inch). Decorate the cake with the strawberry slices starting from the center and moving circularly.
- Cut and serve into 10 pieces. Drizzle lightly each piece with some of the syrup on top and enjoy!
