Easy, no bake cheesecake. Kinda.
If you’re not chronically online like me - please allow me to introduce a little something to you! There’s a trend from Japan for an easy 2 ingredient cheesecake adjacent desert.
The original has greek yogurt & biscoff cookies. It’s as easy as that! Tub of yogurt, and stick a bunch of cookies in it! I tried it. It’s not terrible, but it tastes just like you think it would. Like yogurt and cookies. Again. Not terrible.
But I made it better with a few more ingredients! It only took a few extra steps and it’s 100% better!
If you’re feeling like a sweet treat that’s lower in sugar (there’s still cookies in it….) and higher in protein, you should give this a try!
Yogurt & Biscoff “Cheesecake”
one cup unsweetened greek yogurt
1/4 cup cream cheese
1T vanilla (measure with your heart)
7 or so Biscoff cookies
1T coffee
espresso powder/cocoa powder for dusting the top (if you’re fancy)
Mix up the first 3 ingredients. Line the bottom of your container with a few cookies. Break as needed to cover the bottom. Pour 1T coffee over the cookies. Next, add the yogurt mixture on top so it’s evenly covered. Push leftover cookies into the mixture vertically, leaving space between the cookies for optimal absorption. Dust with powders.
Cover and leave in the fridge for 12-24 hours. Until the cookies are soft.
Scoop and eat right out of the container. This is a single serving, after all!!
Additions: I’ve also seen folks using diced up fruit to top the cheesecake, or add it right into the mix! I’ve used flax seeds and hemp hearts for a little extra fiber and omegas. Try different cookies or yogurt! Go wild! :)
