Cheesecake in a Cup

Ingredients

• 8 shortbread cookies (Digestives, or butter cookies) - بسكويت الزبدة
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder - قرفة
• 1/2 cup cream cheese (OR Mascarpone) - جبن كريمى
• ½ cup cream - قشطة
• 1 lime (for the juice) - ليمون بلدي
• 2 tablespoon powdered Sugar - سكر بودرة
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract - خلاصة الفانيليا
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest - قشر الليمون
• ½ kg strawberries (OR any other preferred berries) - فراولة

Step by step

1. Cut the strawberries in small bite size, mix them with 1 tbsp icing sugar and lime zest and keep it in the fridge until serving.
2. Crush the cookies in a plastic bag or in your blender and mix in the cinnamon.
3. Mix the cheese and cream in a blender and add the rest of the icing sugar, lime juice and vanilla extract.
4. Now all you need is to assemble the dessert – just before serving. Choose a nice glass or and open cup – divide your crushed cookies on the 4 glasses and lay them neatly on the bottom, add the cream cheese mix then top it with the glazed strawberries – make sure you drizzle the strawberry syrup remains on top.
