{new recipe} Haskap Berry No-Bake Cheesecake! If y

{new recipe} Haskap Berry No-Bake Cheesecake! If you've never tried Haskap Berries before, I'd definitely put them on your list. Their flavour is a mix of '3/4 blueberry, 1/4 raspberry, with undertones of black current and elderberry.' Sounds pretty delicious right!? SO I knew I had to make a summer dessert with them (recipe below)⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Andrew @rosyfarms sent me some of these delightful berries to try & now I'm kind of hooked! His farm is located in Northern Alberta and I can't wait to see the haskap berry continue to be more available as the crop continues to grow. So, get inspired by this newer berry in the kitchen with this summery dessert:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Makes 2 large or 4 small cheesecakes⁠⠀
Ingredients:⁠⠀
1 cup haskap berries ⁠⠀
2 tbsp sugar⁠⠀
½ tsp flour⁠⠀
1 tbsp water⁠⠀
10 graham crackers⁠⠀
2 tbsp butter⁠⠀
1 tbsp sugar⁠⠀
1 cup mascarpone cheese⁠⠀
2 tbsp milk or whipping cream⁠⠀
1 tsp lemon zest⁠⠀
1 1/2 tablespoon icing sugar⁠⠀
Instructions:⁠⠀
1. In a small pot or pan, heat haskaps with sugar, flour and water over medium heat until bubbling. Turn to medium-low (still simmering) and cook for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.⁠⠀
2. In a small bowl, crush graham crackers into small pieces and then add butter and sugar. Stir together and set aside.⁠⠀
3. In one more bowl, stir together mascarpone cheese with milk, sugar and lemon zest until well combined.⁠⠀
4. To make each cheesecake, layer how you see fit between 2 large cups or 4 smaller cups. Or, use this as guidance: Start by layering graham cracker crumbs followed by: mascarpone cheese mixture, haskap berries, more graham cracker crumbs, mascarpone cheese mixture, haskap berries and topped with more graham crumbs if desired.
