Ingrients & Directions


250 g Diet fromage frais
200 g Reduced fat sweetmeal
-digestive biscuits, crushed
50 g Unsalted butter, melted
350 g Low-fat soft cheese
3 tb Caster sugar
Few drops vanilla essence
1/2 Lime, juice and rind of
1 1/2 tb Powdered gelatine
3 md Egg whites
500 g Bag frozen mixed summer
-fruits, defrosted
100 g High fruit content raspberry

1. Place the fromage frais in a fine sieve and drain over a bowl for 1
hour, then discard the liquid. Grease a 23cm/9in spring-clip cake tin. Mix
the biscuits and butter together and press into the tin. Chill in the
fridge for 1 hour.

2. To make the filling: put the fromage frais, soft cheese, caster sugar,
vanilla essence, lime juice and rind into a bowl and beat together until
smooth.

3. Put 2 tbsp cold water into a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatine in.
Leave it to soak for 5 minutes, then place the bowl over a pan of simmering
water and stir until dissolved.

4. Whisk the egg whites until softly peaking. Add the dissolved gelatine to
the cheese mixture, stirring constantly. Now using a large metal spoon,
stir in 1 tbsp of the egg white, then fold in the remainder.

5. Pour over the biscuit base and level the top. Chill for 2 hours until
set.

6. Drain the summer fruits, removing as much of the liquid as you can. Warm
the jam in a pan, stirring in the fruits and simmer for 3 minutes. Allow to
cool slightly then spread over the cheesecake. Chill for a further 1 hour
to set and garnish with mint if liked.
