Recipe

Ingredients

For the Base:

• 250g Lotus biscuits
• 100g butter

For the Cream Filling:

• 400g heavy cream (Schlagsahne)
• 500g mascarpone
• 2 packets vanilla sugar (Vanillinzucker)
• 1 packet whipped cream stabilizer (Sahnesteif)
• 3 tbsp powdered sugar (Puderzucker)
• 3 tbsp Lotus cream

For the Topping:

• 1 jar Lotus cream
• Fresh strawberries

Instructions

1. Prepare the Base
   Crush the Lotus biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Melt the butter and mix it with the crushed biscuits. Press this mixture firmly into the base of a springform pan to form the cheesecake crust. Refrigerate the base while you prepare the cream filling.
2. Make the Cream Filling
   In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with the whipped cream stabilizer until it forms stiff peaks. In a separate bowl, combine the mascarpone, vanilla sugar, and powdered sugar. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined. Add the Lotus cream and mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
3. Assemble the Cheesecake
   Pour the cream mixture over the prepared biscuit base and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the cheesecake to set properly.
4. Prepare the Topping
   Once the cheesecake has set, spread a generous layer of Lotus cream over the top. Garnish with fresh strawberries, sliced or whole, to add a burst of color and freshness.
5. Serve and Enjoy
   Slice and serve this indulgent cheesecake cold. The creamy filling combined with the crunchy base and sweet topping will have everyone coming back for seconds!

This Lotus Cheesecake is creamy, rich, and full of delightful flavors, with just the right touch of spice from the Lotus biscuits. It’s a perfect dessert for anyone who loves unique, indulgent treats!
