Lemon Cheesecake has to be one of my favourite no bake cheesecakes.
Topped with candied lemons and a tart lemon syrup and it is just heavenly.
No Fancy equipment is needed to make these cute little cheesecakes but if you want to scale it up a bit and make a large 8 inch version it couldn’t be easier – just double the quantities and Voila! all done.
If you decide to make this recipe don’t forget to share some pictures across to me on Facebook, Twitter, google + or whatever social media you like š I love to see what you have been up to.

Instructions

Add the lemon zest and juice and mix through.
Whisk the cream until thick. Spoon onto the cheese and sugar mixture and stir through. Divide the mixture between the baking tinsĀ on top of the cookie base.
