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

Creamy no-bake cheesecake on a buttery biscuit base, topped with vibrant homemade raspberry coulis.

# 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.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • No oven necessary—I can assure you, it turns out beautifully creamy every single time.
  • The vibrant raspberry coulis adds a tart sparkle that lifts the whole dessert.
02 -
  • I once rushed the chill time and ended up with a runny middle—patience gives you perfect slices.
  • Whipping the cream too stiffly can make the filling lose its dreamy smoothness; soft peaks are the secret.
03 -
  • Lining the tin with parchment makes releasing the cheesecake drama-free every single time.
  • For flawless slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe dry between cuts.
