These no-bake banana cheesecakes are so quick and simple to make, yet taste absolutely divine! I really love the flavour combinations here, the creamiest cheesecake filling, mouth-watering lemon curd and spice and caramel flavour of Biscoff biscuits. Each layer compliments the other, and blended together, they taste just delightful.
I have to admit I am a lazy cook. I am super lazy when it comes to baking and making cakes. I find using some cute jars for the cakes not only easier and quicker but also super adorable. The jars also make the cakes portable and are such a wonderful gift idea. (I bought mine here).
NOTES: I like to use coconut butter with this recipe due to its firming power but it’s a lot harder than coconut oil so it needs to be melted before adding to the rest of ingredients. I usually buy it in the big supermarkets or order from Amazon (here).
