Mini No Bake Cheesecake

More likely a faux cheesecake but super easy and convenient when you have surprise guests and need a quick dessert.

150g strawberries
8 strawberries for the topping
2 tbsp of caster sugar
250g Italian mascarpone
5 digestive biscuits
25g melted butter
4 tbsp double cream
4 tbsp icing sugar
1 lemon, zested and juiced

Method:
Cook the strawberries and sugar to a pulp - on a low heat!
Use a food processor to crush the biscuits, mix with the melted butter and press into the bottom of 4 glasses or ramekins
Mix the mascarpone, double cream, icing sugar, lemon juice and zest together.
Make alternative layers of cheesecake and strawberry mix in each glass, top with a few sliced strawberries and serve.
