Directions
Chocolate Mint No-Bake Cheesecake, I have been making this for years and it is easy to make and so good It makes quite a large cheesecake I sometimes use light cream cheese to save on calories but don’t sub with skim condensed milk or the cheesecake won’t set Gelatine is not needed it is the lemon juice that sets this cheesecake I don’t really know how long this takes from start to finish but it is easy so therefore quick to make, the chilling and decorating takes up most of the time I have estimated 10 mins to make and about 20mins to decorate Haven’t counted time to set , I’m really sorry to say this, but the cheesecake wouldn’t set I added lemon juice (minimum amount) but even then it was quite lemony and overpowered the choc mint I’m a bit disappointed with this I eventually just froze it but even then it just isn’t the right texture Sorry , Very easy to make, but the cheesecake was soooo very lemon-y Did not taste good with the chocolate mint topping! Would be fine if it were a lemon or fruit cheesecake, but no one ate it and it was for my friend’s birthday I was embarrassed Are you sure it’s 1 1/4 C lemon juice??

Melt About 8 Mints With a Tiny Amount of the Cream, use the Microwave on Very Low Setting For About 15 to 30seconds (the Cream Is Added So It Won't Be Too Hard to Spread), You Could Use More Mints Here, Just Allow Enough Mints For Decoration, Spread Melted Mints Over Very Cold Cheescake. |
