   How to make cheesecake without baking? Prepare the necessary ingredients for the base. You can use regular or chocolate cookies. With chocolate, the whole cheesecake looks much more interesting because of the contrast of colors.

   Melt the butter and cool. This can be done in the microwave or on the stove (water bath).

   Grind the cookies in a blender into crumbs.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour the melted butter into the shortbread crumbs and stir.

5. STEP 5

   

   Grease a springform pan with a diameter of 18 cm with butter. If you have acetate film, line the sides of the pan with it - this will make the cheesecake easier to remove from the pan. Pour the sand crumbs into the mold and compact it, forming the bottom and sides. Place the mold with the base in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

The curd cheesecake version is also not bad and not as expensive as the one with mascarpone.
