Why in the world would they use gelatin anyway? 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...

Looks like a no bake cheesecake. I've seen other recipes that use
gelatin as well. Never tried one though. Might have to give it a try.

Yep. No mention of baking it.

It does work, and does not in any way make it nasty.

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.

You need gelatine in an 'unbaked' cheesecake. I've got heaps of unbaked
cheesecake recipes and they all use gelatine, it's very common here. Baked
cheesecakes are a different thing altogether.

I'm pleased to know there are at least two or three people here in RFC
who can read a recipe. Maybe Graphic Queen needs pictures. ;-)

OK. I have never made a cheesecake that was no bake at all. It looks
good but I think I will make it by baking it and without the gelatin.


Then it will be a completely different product.

Why not try it the way the recipe has it first? You never know, you
might even like it.

Because a no-bake cheesecake is not a real cheesecake.


Why not?

I have yet to
taste a no-bake cheesecake that is worth anything at all. I know that
I would never like it. If someone does, then fine, that is them.


Each to their own.

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.

Thye're both 'cheesecakes, they're just different. 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!

No. Thy're just "different" desserts, that's all.

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.

Mom used to prefer the gelatin type over baked. 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).
