Perfect for Spring, a delectable, minimalist Japanese version as smooth as silk with a hint of lemon: JAPANESE RARE No-Bake CHEESECAKE from JAPAN CENTRE


Weather reports are saying this region of the continent is about to receive a "tropical blast", we can all get happy as warmth and spring sunshine is expected to take hold over Germany for the next few days! Warm air and sunny skies always inspire a desire to get together for fresh air, coffee, and conversation with friends, so if you're inspired to plan a simple terrace "Kaffeeklatch" with your besties over the next week, NUY40 + has got the perfect dessert ideas that are sure to be a hit: light & fluffy cheesecake, no oven required.  That's right, escape from oven duty in favor of easy to assemble, tasty cheesecake that essentially only needs chilling time. It's a win-win situation in preparation and presentation and is just as yummy as store-bought dessert. Even better, no-bake cheesecakes adapt particularly well to those who would like to substitute lower fat cream cheese, sugar replacements, and crusts made from alternative flour cookies in accordance with their dietary lifestyle; in the recipes we've curated here; we've tested sugar replacements such as sucralose, stevia, and agave, and created crusts with cookies made from Dinkel Miehl ( spelt flour) with stunning results. In fact, you can replace Graham cracker cookies requested for any cheesecake crust with the cookie of your choice.

What says sunshine more than the delicious taste of mango? If you don't want to puree your own, an inexpensive Mango or  Mango-Apfel (mango-apple) hybrid is easily purchased in "mus" (puree) or sauce form from REWE stores in the applesauce aisle- or you can find it in shops that sell bio jams, sauces, and purees like BUDNIDM Drogerie or ALNATURA.  PENNY also sells Bio Mango-Apfel puree that is suitable for this NO BAKE MANGO CHEESECAKE from AFTERNOON RECIPES

Berries are on sale everywhere in local German grocery stores, so there's no better time than the present to enjoy this super-simple BERRY BLISS NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE from KRAFT RECIPES. We substituted German brand, lower fat cream cheese for the name brand used above, as well our own hand whipped cream with perfect results in our kitchen test for this recipe. This cake needs longer chilling time than most, so while it takes minimum time to prepare, just be sure to start early or prepare it for overnight time in the fridge so the cake will set properly.

You can't get more American than OREOS, and now you can bring the taste of a famous American restaurant classic home to your friends in this NO BAKE OREO CHEESECAKE from LIVE WELL BAKE OFTEN

That concludes our NUY 40+ YUM! curation for the week. While we would normally wish you "Happy Cooking" on your kitchen adventures, in honor of this short burst of spring and a chance to abandon our ovens, we'll just say,

Happy CHILLING, NUY Divas!
