Description

Viral Japanese Yogurt Cheesecake is a 2 ingredient, no bake dessert made with thick Greek yogurt and sturdy cookies. It sets in the fridge into a creamy, rare cheesecake style slice or scoop. Top with berries, jam, honey, or crushed cookies right before serving.


Ingredients

Scale

125g full fat or low fat Greek yogurt

4 Biscoff cookies (or Oreos, shortbread, tea biscuits, digestive biscuits)

Optional toppings: crushed cookies, berries, jam, honey, lemon zest


Instructions

1. Spoon the thick Greek yogurt into a container and smooth the surface.

2. Insert cookies upright in tight rows, keeping them mostly submerged.

3. Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm.

4. Serve directly from the container or unmold and slice. Add desired toppings before serving.

Notes

Use thick yogurt for best results; if yogurt is loose, strain it for 30 to 60 minutes before use.

Chill the dessert for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, to help it set properly.

If you prefer a more traditional cheesecake texture, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of cream cheese to the yogurt.

Cookies should be dry and sturdy; avoid thin or soft cookies that break down too easily.

Pack cookies tightly without leaving large gaps to help structure the dessert.

Store covered in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days.

This is a no bake dessert that mimics a rare cheesecake, not a baked Japanese soufflé cheesecake.

Gluten free and dairy free versions are possible by substituting appropriate cookies and yogurt.
