Ingredients for Strawberry Cheesecake Glasses

How to Make Strawberry Cheesecake Glasses
- Step 1: Hang the curd in a cloth for an hour to drain excess water, ensuring you have 1/2 cup of thick hung curd. In the meantime, crush the biscuits into a semi-fine mixture.
- Step 2: Mix the crushed biscuits with melted butter until moist. Spoon this mixture into serving glasses, pressing down firmly to create a solid base. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
- Step 3: Chop fresh strawberries and blend them with sugar until smooth. For enhanced flavor, heat the puree until it boils, then set aside to cool. Reserve 1/4 cup for the topping.
- Step 4: Combine the hung curd and fresh cream in a bowl, whisking until smooth. Stir in the strawberry puree (except the reserved 1/4 cup) and mix well, adjusting sugar to taste.
- Step 5: In a small pan, bring 2 tablespoons of water to a boil. Dissolve the agar agar in the boiling water until clear and add it to the strawberry cheese cream mixture.
- Step 6: Pour the mixture over the biscuit base, and drizzle the reserved strawberry puree on top. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set.
- Step 7: Once set, serve chilled and enjoy this refreshing No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake Cups experience!

Strawberry Cheesecake Glasses: 5 Layers of Delight
- Total Time: 2 hours
- Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description
This Strawberry Cheesecake Recipe is a no-bake, creamy and refreshing dessert featuring a biscuit base, fresh strawberry puree, and a luscious blend of hung curd and fresh cream.
Ingredients
- 4 biscuits
- 3 teaspoon melted butter
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, packed
- 3 tablespoon sugar (adjust according to sweet/sour taste of strawberries)
- 1/2 cup hung curd
- 1/2 cup fresh cream
- 1/2 tablespoon china grass (agar agar)
- 2 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Hang curd in a cloth for an hour to drain all water and obtain 1/2 cup thick hung curd. Meanwhile, crush the biscuits roughly and then powder them to a semi-fine mixture. Add the melted butter and mix thoroughly until the mixture is moist.
- Spoon the biscuit mixture evenly into serving glasses, pressing firmly with the back of a spoon or fingertips to create a solid base. Refrigerate this layer while preparing the other components.
- Roughly chop fresh strawberries and blend them with sugar until smooth. Optionally, heat this puree in a pan just until it reaches a boil to enhance flavor and dissolve sugar completely. Set aside to cool. Reserve 1/4 cup of this puree for the top layer.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the hung curd and fresh cream, whisking until smooth. Stir in the strawberry puree (except the reserved 1/4 cup) and mix well. Taste and adjust sugar if needed, beating well to dissolve.
- In a small pan, bring 2 tablespoons of water to a boil. Place a heat-resistant small cup containing agar agar into the boiling water, allowing it to dissolve completely until the liquid is clear.
- Add the dissolved agar agar liquid to the strawberry cheese cream mixture and mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
- Pour the strawberry cheese cream mixture over the biscuit base in the glasses. Then drizzle the reserved strawberry puree on top as the finishing layer. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set and firm.
- Once set, serve chilled for a refreshing and creamy strawberry cheesecake dessert experience.
Notes
