Ready in: 45 minutes (approximately) plus 4 - 5 hours setting time
Serves: 4

No nutritional information available, but this is a Slimming World recipe.

Ingredients

- 6 chocolate-coated Rich Tea biscuits, crushed
- 1 level tbsp low-fat spread, melted
- Low-calorie cooking spray
- 1 level tbsp cocoa, sieved
- 400g quark (fat-free soft cheese)
- 1 tbsp sweetener
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A few drops of pink food colouring (optional)
- 2 x 11g sachets powdered gelatine
- 15g dark chocolate, broken into small pieces

Method

1. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Put 4 pastry rings on top, each about 7 - 8cm in diameter.

2. Put the crushed biscuits in a bowl. Add the melted spread and 2 sprays of low-calorie cooking spray and mix well. Spoon into the bases of the rings and press down evenly. Cover with cling film and chill.

3. Meanwhile, put the cocoa, quark, sweetener, vanilla extract and colouring in a bowl and whisk well. Put a heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water and dissolve the gelatine in 5 tbsp of water for about 10 minutes. Stir this into the quark mixture, then spoon over the biscuit bases. Replace the cling film and return to the fridge for 4 - 5 hours, or until set.

4. To serve, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water (or in the microwave on a low heat for 30 seconds). Run a knife around the edges of the cheesecakes and transfer to serving plates, then drizzle over the melted chocolate.
