Strawberry Jelly Cheesecake
This is a no-bake recipe for cheesecake with strawberry jelly and it is just perfect for Valentine’s Day. The strawberry jelly hearts are so pretty to look at with the heart-shaped strawberries, off-white cheese and red jelly.

Once the cake is chilled and set, I cut them into serving squares, where I keep in an airtight container for several days in the fridge. They are ready to serve as an after-dinner dessert or tea break. I love that it is not overly cheesy or sweet.
I was introduced to this dessert after my friend Jac brought it to one of our friends’ gathering. The recipe was taken from Bing Cooks which came with detailed, step-by-step photos. I halved the original recipe proportions and used a disposable party tray measuring 20 x 20 cm (8 x 8 in) as shown above, yielding 9 strawberry heart pieces after cutting. You can use a slightly bigger or smaller tray, make and serve them in individual ramekins instead, or space out the strawberries differently from me.
I made the biscuit layer the night before and chill overnight; the morning after I make the cheesecake layer, let it set in the fridge; at night I make the jelly layer to chill overnight. Spreading out my effort like that, each step does not take up much time or effort on my part. In this way, I free the actual day to simply cut and store the cheesecake.
this is such a pretty dessert for the dining table! i will be wow-ed!
Awesome idea! Hopefully the weather will soon turn warmer on Valentine’s Day : ).
So very pretty that I want to make one too!
Happy Valentine’s Day and Happy Chap Goh Mei! Your cheesecake is just perfect for the occasion.
Very pretty! Other than Valentine’s Day, also good for Singapore national day (red and white plus the heart-love) kekeke…
If I don’t have a electric mixer, is it possible to whisk the mixture by hand?
it’s not impossible, just that you need much more effort to whisk the mixture to desired consistency (light, fluffy and smooth).
I am so going to make this!
So cute this dessert…I like the layered cheesecake with the gelatin…perfect for Valentine’s Day.
Have a great week Wiffy :D
Wow … so pretty. I did this before but didnt get such a neat slice. Will try again. :)
Wipe your blade after each slice, then dip to moisten with water. It’s tedious but you will get a clean slice each time :)
Am going to try this, just wanted to confirm that 250g of cream cheese is required ?
Yes, 250 grams (one block). This is what I used: http://philly.com.au/products/philadelphia-cream-cheese-block/
