Prep15 minutes

Ingredients
Crust
- 15 Digestive Biscuits
- 2 tbsp Butter melted
Cheesecake Filling
- 200 gm Cream Cheese softened
- 100 gm Hung Yogurt greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup Sugar
- 8 Boondi Laddoos
Garnish
- 2 tbsp Pistachios slivered
- 1.5 Rose Buds
Instructions
- In a food processor, finely crush the digestive biscuits. This will form the base of the cheesecake.
- Combine the crushed biscuits with the melted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the biscuit mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan. Create an even layer. This crust provides a sturdy base and prevents the cheesecake filling from leaking.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, hung curd (or Greek yogurt), and sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the prepared biscuit base in the springform pan. Ensure an even layer for a consistent texture.
- Crumble the boondi laddoos and sprinkle them evenly over the cream cheese layer. This adds the distinctive boondi laddoo flavor and texture to the cheesecake.
- Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture over the crumbled boondi laddoos, creating the final layer of the cheesecake.
- Garnish the top of the cheesecake with slivered pistachios and a few rose buds for an elegant presentation and added aroma.
- Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours to allow it to set completely. Chilling helps the flavors meld and the cheesecake firm up.
- Serve the cheesecake chilled and enjoy the delightful fusion of flavors.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- You can use cottage cheese.
- Adjust the sugar to your taste, as boondi laddoos are quite sweet.
- Slice the cheesecake with a warm knife for smooth slices.
- For a more intense laddoo flavor, soak the boondi in a tablespoon of warm saffron-infused milk for a few minutes before layering onto the cheesecake.
- If you prefer a crunchier texture, reserve some dry boondi and crushed pistachios to sprinkle on top just before serving.
- To make individual servings, assemble the cheesecake layers in small glasses or jars.
Expert Tips
- For a creamier cheesecake filling, use full-fat cream cheese and ensure it's softened to room temperature before mixing.
- If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought boondi laddoos, but ensure you crumble them evenly before layering.
- Balance the sweetness of the boondi with a tart fruit topping, such as a raspberry or mango coulis, for a refreshing contrast.
Storage Instructions
- Store the cheesecake in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days, as the boondi may start to lose its texture if kept longer due to moisture from the filling.
