Our fruity topping finishes this no cook cheesecake perfectly.
Ingredients:
For the cheesecake:
-
Sugar-free Digestive Biscuits or Shortbread Biscuits - Opting for a reduced-sugar biscuit will make this more diabetic friendly
-
100g Butter - Leave at room temperature so it softens and is easier to blend

100g Total Sweet Xylitol (powdered) Create your own powdered Total Sweet "icing sugar" with a hand blender

Method:
For the berry coulis:
Add 150g of the forest fruits, 100g of Total Sweet and tsp of lemon juice to a small saucepan. Combine over low heat to stir until it reduces and thickens, and creates the berry coulis.
For the cheesecake:
- Add the biscuits to a food processor or food mixer. Combine until crushed and fine. Add the butter and combine.
- Transfer the mixture into a 23 cm springform pan and press it well with the bottom of a glass. Set aside.
