Ingredients

For the crust

  • 20 gluten free chocolate chip cookies
  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

For the cheesecake

  • 12 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream room temperature
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 1/4 cup powder sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the berry jam topping

  • 14 oz mixed berries fresh or frozen
  • 7 oz sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Line a cake mold with baking paper
  • Place the cookies in a plastic bag, preferably a resealable one.
  • Seal all but one inch of the bag and roll with a rolling pin to crush the cookies or use a meat beater. You can also process them in a food processor until they are a fine crumb.
  • Stir together cookie crumbs and melted butter.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of the cake mold.
  • Beat room temperature cream cheese by hand or a mixer until fluffy (I'd recommend a mixer).
  • Beat in room temperature heavy cream.
  • Beat in egg, powder sugar and vanilla extract until no lumps remain (if you use all ingredients at room temperature, no lumps will form).
  • Evenly distribute cream cheese mixture over the crust.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the cake begins to brown.
  • Cool completely and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • To make the topping, mix berries and sugar and boil for 15-20 minutes. If you want it with more syrup, 15 minutes will be enough. Stir in constantly once the mixture comes to a boiling point, particularly for the last 5 minutes.

Notes

Store the cake in refrigerator in an airtight container. It will last for 3-4 days in refrigerator or can be frozen for up to 3 weeks.
