hey /ck/
i really like no bake cheesecakes, but it seems like youre supposed to put gelatin in them to make them set?
i really don't like the jelly-like texture you get when using gelatin though, do you have any suggestions or alternatives? if need be i'll just put up with super sloppy/messy cakes because it tastes better without gelatin

>i really like no bake cheesecake
>i don't like the thing that makes them not bake
are you genuinely fucking retarded? were you intoxicated making this post? i genuinely want you to answer that question

here's a crazy idea - assmemble a normal cheesecake (this step is just like a no-bake) then instead of putting it in the fridge to set for 12 hours, put it IN THE FUCKING OVEN FOR 30 FUCKING MINUTES

t. doesnt know anything about cheesecakes
it still holds together without gelatin its just much softer and messier
a nobake cheesecake and one you bake are different recipes completely

You could use less gelstine to adjust the tecture to the stiffnes you prefer, and if you dislike the taste, try alternatives like agar agar? Although i prefer gelatine over agar agar. It seems to give the filling a slightly floury texture. I always go with less gelatine than the recipe calls for and i dig the results.

thanks i'll give both a try
its more the texture gelatine gives it that bothers me, its like eating cheesecake flavoured jelly
