- 1 1/2 cups (375 g) Greek yogurt, plain or flavoured*
- I like using 5% fat for the creamiest texture. I recommend at least 2% fat but you can also use 0%. Higher fat = richer and more cheesecake-like
- 2 tbsp (30 g) cream cheese, optional
- 12–16 coconut sable cookies
- Biscoff, Oreos or any type of drier cookies can be used
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract or 1/2 vanilla bean pod
- 1 tbsp maple syrup, or to taste
- 1 tbsp honey, or to taste
- 1-2 tbsp jam
- Honey
- Jam
- Berry compote
- Cocoa powder
- Fresh fruit
- Crushed cookies
Instructions
- 1.Mix the filling: If using cream cheese, whisk it together with the Greek yogurt until completely smooth and creamy.
- 2.This is also a good time to add any sweetener or flavoring if you’d like.
- 3.Prepare the container: Arrange the cookies upright in your container, leaving about 1/2 cm of space between each cookie.
- 4.Place a few cookies around the edges as well, pressing them firmly into the yogurt.
- 5.You can leave a bit of the cookie sticking out of the yogurt (~1 cm) which will give it a bit of crispy texture.
- 6.The more cookies you add the thicker and sweeter it will come out.
- 7.Chill and set: Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or until set.
- 8.Serve: Run a knife or spatula around the edges and flip to unmold, or simply enjoy it straight from the container.
- 9.Top with honey, jam, berry compote, or fresh fruit as desired.
- 10.Enjoy!!
