Gluten-free Baked Cheesecake Slice

Strawberry and Chocolate Cheesecake Slice.

This Gluten-free slice is a crowd pleaser, it's not too sweet but will still satisfy the dessert fan. Gluten-free biscuits can be swapped for regular arrowroot biscuits. That will work fine. Or you could even use chocolate biscuits if you really want that choco hit!

Ingredients:

• 250g Gluten free digestive biscuits
•  100g unsalted butter, melted
•  2 x 250g blocks light cream cheese, softenened 
• 1/3 cup caster sugar
•  3 eggs
•  1 cup fresh strawberries, roughly chopped
•  100g milk chocolate, melted

 

Method:

Grease a 3cm-deep, 17cm x 27cm (base) slice pan. Line with baking paper, allowing a 2cm overhang at long ends.

Process biscuits until finely chopped. Add butter. Process until combined. Press mixture evenly over base of prepared pan. Refrigerate for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 170°C/150°C fan-forced.

Using an electric mixer, beat cheese until smooth. Add sugar. Beat for 5 minutes or until thickened. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating to combine. Fold in strawberries and chocolate. Spoon into prepared pan.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until just set. Cool to room temperature. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until chilled. Lift out onto a board. Cut into pieces. Serve

Suitable for freezing.

Have Fun!
