  • Press the tennis biscuits into the lined pan, use the back of a measuring cup to smooth it out
  • Add half the cheesecake mixture into the pan. Place the strawberry whirls on the sides of the pan, the pretty side stuck to the walls of the pan. Pour the remaining mixture into pan.
  • Cover with cling wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight
  • Serve cold. You can top up with more strawberries when serving

Notes

  1. Although I used the Danone Double Cream Strawberry Cheesecake flavoured yogurt you can use any strawberry double cream yogurt or low fat if you prefer
  2. You can replace the agar agar with gelatin
  3. The sugar can be increased to 1/3 cup if you prefer a sweeter cheesecake
  4. Freeze dried strawberries can be found in most major supermarkets
  5. If you don't have strawberry whirls this cheesecake is great on it's own too
