Cheesecake needs no gelatin if it is made right and baked. I wondered that myself. It sounds like a nice recipe, but the jello seems superfluous... -- Jani in WA |

I've seen other recipes that use gelatin as well. It does work, and does not in any way make it nasty. Never tried one though. Might have to give it a try. The one change I'd make is to add some vanilla extract. I'd add it to the cream cheese mixture before dividing it. I'd also be pretty choosy about the chocolate "biscuits" for the crust. It does look yummy, and if you swirl the cream cheese a bit, you could make it prettier than just white over black. I'm going to show this one to my wife, the dessert person. -- Queenie --Bryan |

: Because a no-bake cheesecake is not a real cheesecake. I have yet to taste a no-bake cheesecake that is worth anything at all. The term "no-bake" implies a faked, shortcut version of a baked item. I grew up with proper set cheesecakes; they are a dessert in their own right and to compare them with baked ones is like apples and oranges. K |

I love both types. I also do not like a dense cheesecake but like the fluffier kind. Most non-baked cheesecakes are fluffier than the baked ones! Jen |

I grew up with proper set cheesecakes; they are a dessert in their own right and to compare them with baked ones is like apples and oranges. Apples and oranges are both fruit, just different types. It's the same with the cheesecakes. My husband prefers un-baked, My mother prefers baked. I love both sorts. Jen |

Maybe it's because she didn't enjoy baking. Come to think of it, she made it in the summertime.... so it was probably a kitchen heat thing (no air conditioning, hot and humid climate). -- History is a vast early warning system Norman Cousins |
