Mother's Day No-Bake Cheesecake (Print Version)

Creamy no-bake cheesecake on a buttery biscuit base, finished with a bright raspberry coulis and fresh berries.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Biscuit Crust

01 - 200 g digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
02 - 100 g unsalted butter, melted

→ Cheesecake Filling

03 - 400 g cream cheese, softened
04 - 200 ml double cream (heavy cream), cold
05 - 100 g powdered sugar
06 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
07 - 1 tbsp lemon juice

→ Raspberry Coulis

08 - 250 g fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)
09 - 60 g granulated sugar
10 - 1 tbsp lemon juice

# How to Make It:

01 - Crush the biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or a rolling pin. Mix with melted butter until evenly combined. Press the mixture evenly into the base of a 20 cm (8") springform tin lined with baking parchment. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
02 - Beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice; mix until combined. In a separate bowl, whip the double cream to soft peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Pour the filling over the biscuit base, smoothing the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, to set.
03 - In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down. Remove from heat and strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Allow to cool.
04 - Remove the cheesecake from the springform tin and transfer to a serving plate. Drizzle generously with raspberry coulis and garnish with extra fresh raspberries if desired.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • Everyone will think you spent hours fussing, but it’s honestly effortless from start to finish.
  • The raspberry coulis bursts with freshness, making every bite bright and truly unforgettable.
02 -
  • I learned the hard way that rushing the chill time means the cheesecake will sag and slice messily—patience pays off.
  • Switching to fresh lemon juice in both filling and coulis made the flavors brighter than bottled ever could.
03 -
  • Chill your mixer bowl and whisk for quicker, easier cream whipping.
  • Sneak a little fresh lemon zest into the crust if you want a citrusy boost—my secret for a bakery-fresh taste.
