Ingredients

  1. Kiri® Cream
  2. 300 grams of Kiri® cream cheese (2 tubs of 150g)
  3. 300ml heavy cream
  4. 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  5. 1 1/2 tablespoons icing sugar

  9. 60g pistachios
  10. 50g butter, melted

  12. Topping

Method

  1. Prepare the crust

    1. In a food processor, place the vanilla cookies and pistachios and mix until the mixture has a sandy consistency.
    2. Place the cookie mixture in a bowl. Add the melted butter and mix to combine.
    3. In individual cheesecake molds of 6.5 cm diameter, place 1 tablespoon of the crust mixture and press it using a cup to smoothen it and spread it evenly. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.

  2. Prepare the Kiri® Cream

    1. Place the Kiri® cream cheese in a large bowl, and using an electric eggbeater, mix until you have a smooth texture.
    2. Add the heavy cream, icing sugar, and lemon juice and mix until the mixture is fluffy and thick.
    3. Place the cream on top of the cookie crust and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until well set.
    4. Gently unmold your mini-cheesecakes and decorate with pistachios and lemon slices on top. Serve right away.
