Although I am not usually a fan of gelatin based cheesecakes, this one is quick to prepare and simply delicious. —foodfanatic

  • 1 pound large strawberries, halved
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam, warmed and strained

Directions
  1. Prepare you favorite cheesecake base in a 10" springform pan - I do a graham cracker or shortbread one. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Sprinkle gelatin over the water and warm, stirring until gelatin dissolves. Cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, beat cream cheese and condensed milk in an electric mixer until smooth. Beat cream in a separate bowl until soft peaks form.
  4. Stir warm gelatin into cream cheese mixture, fold in cream and chocolate. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, cover and refrigerate overnight.
  5. Arrange strawberries on top of the cheesecake and brush with the combined juice and jam.
