Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups crushed digestive biscuits
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup melted coconut oil
  • 4 8-ounce packages softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries cleaned and sliced
  • ¼ cup strawberry jam

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F.
  2. In a mixing bowl, blend the crushed digestive biscuits with brown sugar and melted coconut oil until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. Firmly press this blend into the base of a 9-inch springform pan to create a sturdy crust.
  4. In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the softened cream cheese until it’s luxuriously smooth.
  5. Gradually incorporate the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, ensuring everything is well mixed.
  6. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing gently on low speed after each addition to maintain a light texture.
  7. Carefully pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
  8. Bake for approximately 55-60 minutes, or until the center appears set with just a slight wobble.
  9. Once done, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour.
  10. After cooling, transfer the cheesecake to room temperature and spread the Greek yogurt evenly across the top.
  11. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for optimal flavor.
  12. When ready to serve, adorn the cheesecake with fresh strawberry slices and a drizzle of strawberry jam. Cut into slices and enjoy!
