Ingredients
Cream cheese. Use full fat cream cheese, preferably the variety that comes in brick form. This will result in a firmer end result. If you want a softer cheesecake, feel free to use full cream smooth cottage cheese. The cheesecake might not release as cleanly from the wrapper but it will still be delicious. Mascarpone. Sweetened condensed milk. Lemon juice. Fresh passion fruit. Cookies of your choice. I used coconut cookies but Graham crackers will also work well. Melted butter. Salt.

How to make no bake cheesecake firmer
The key to making a firm no bake cheesecake is to use full fat, firm cream cheese. Philadelphia, or something similar. Cream cheese in tubs are often softer in texture to make them more spreadable and this will result in a softer cheesecake. This isn’t a problem necessarily and the finished result will still be delicious. But a softer texture is probably more suitable if you’re going to be assembling in glasses, etc.
What other fruit can I use?
Blend any of the below and strain to remove seeds if preferred:
Berries. Kiwi fruit. Lime / Lemon juice. Other citrus like orange or grapefruit will also be delicious. Lemon curd will also be amazing in this recipe.
