No one can deny that the creamiest cake you can ever make is cheesecake. One of the best things about this cake is that you can make it according to your favourite taste; either with chocolate, Oreos, lemon, or some kind of fruit. In this recipe, we are going to learn how to make a strawberry cheesecake.

 

Our special dessert is sugar free and does not require the oven to bake it. In a matter of fact, it does not need to be baked at all. It is very easy to make with few ingredients and few simple instructions. (Make sure to follow them below). Our cheesecake is prepared in 15 minutes only but it requires 2 hours at least in the fridge. Do not think that this dessert is small. Quite the contrary, it actually serves 12 pieces. So, you can definitely have it with your family, friends or/ and loved ones.

 

The texture of the cake is exquisite. There is a great balance between the crunchy graham cracker crumbs and the creamy pudding mix. In addition to this, the taste of this strawberry cheesecake is indescribable. To say the least is that it is soft, creamy and so delicious. This dessert is quite healthy thanks to the absence of sugar. Nevertheless, do not worry. It is not bland at all. We replaced sugar with a mix between nutmeg and cinnamon. This makes the cheesecake very tasteful and delicious. You will not even feel the absence of sugar.
