Instructions

Hull the strawberries (take off the stem) and add them to a food processor and puree till smooth
Pour the strawberry puree into a saucepan along with two tablespoons castor sugar and simmer this for about 10-12 minutes till the puree reduces in half and becomes really thick. Set this aside to cool completely.
Transfer biscuits to food processor and pulse a few times till they resemble crumbs. Alternatively you can also transfer the biscuits to a ziplock bag and whack it with a rolling pin till you have crumbs. Mix the biscuit crumb with melted butter and set aside.
In a large bowl beat together cream cheese and ¼ cup caster sugar till soft and fluffy. Add the heavy whipping cream and beat for two to three minutes till the mixture increases slightly in volume. The mixture should resemble thick frosting. Pour in the cooled strawberry puree and use a spatula to lightly combine everything. Don't worry if the mixture is streaky and slightly runny. Transfer to a piping bag for easy assembly.
To assemble these no bake strawberry cheesecakes, add two tablespoons of the biscuit crumb to a glass or jar and pipe the cheesecake mixture till ¾th of the way. Repeat with all the other jars till you've used up all the mixture. Refrigerate overnight. Top with fresh strawberries and biscuit crumb before serving. These no bake strawberry cheesecake jars are best consumed straight from the fridge.
