'Polish' no-bake cheesecakes

With strawberries and vanilla

  1. Crush the biscuits in a plastic bag to make fine crumbs. Stir the melted butter in the biscuits.
  2. Line 12-cup-muffin-tray with muffin paper cups, divide the mixture between them and press down with your fingers. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes to set.
  3. Place gelatin in a small pot with 2 tablespoons of water. Soak for 10 minutes until softened, then add 100ml of hot water and stir it until melted. Set aside to cool.
  4. Split the vanilla pod in half with a sharp knife and scrape out the seeds. Place the vanilla seeds, mascarpone, yogurt and sugar in a bowl. Mix with a hand mixer until all ingredients are combined. With the machine running, pour on the gelatin in a thin stream until smooth. Pour over the biscuit mix.
  5. Cut the strawberries in four. Decorate each cheesecake with strawberries and place in the fridge for at least 3 hours to set.
  6. You can serve the cheesecakes with strawberry sauce: mix 12 big strawberries in a food processor with 4 tablespoons of sugar. Place the mixture in a pot and heat it until dense. Cool down and serve with the cheesecakes.
Notes: 

Today is the first day of the Poland & Ukraine EURO 2012 Championship. And the first match is Poland-Greece starting at 18h00 :-) So these red and white cheesecakes are perfect for the occasion. They look almost like small Polish flags...and they taste incredible as well...

POLSKA BIAŁO-CZERWONI!!!
