This lemon cheesecake was the favorite dessert at a charity buffet – it went like lightening. Once you’ve collected the ingredients together, it takes 10 minutes to make.

Ingredients

3 ½ oz. ginger cookies, crushed (ED: This would also be good with vanilla wafers.)
3.5 Tbsp. butter, melted
2 9-oz. tubs mascarpone
11.5 oz. jar luxury lemon curd
Juice of 1 small lemon
Fresh raspberries and blueberries, to decorate
Icing sugar, to dust

Directions

Mix the cookies with the butter in a bowl.
Line your round pan with parchment paper.
Press into the base of the pan(but not up the sides)
Put the mascarpone, lemon curd, and lemon juice in a bowl and beat with a spatula until smooth
Spoon on to the cookie base and level the top.
Chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours to firm up
To serve, remove the cheesecake from the pan, peel off the baking parchment.
Arrange on a platter.
Decorate with the fruit and dust with icing sugar.

💡️ Help, Cookie Policy, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service

🙄 Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
🌄 Why No Pictures: Well, there ARE some pictures, here and there. But to be honest, if you need pictures showing you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking! And really, I find them annoying when all I want to do is look at the recipe! Also, we haven't made most of these recipes. We occasionally take pictures of the finished product when we remember!
💯 Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
🍪 Cookie Policy: Cookies are only used for registered users for the keep logged-in function, if you select it. They are also used to let us know that you don't want cookies set. Ironic, ain't it!
