Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g (7 oz) digestive biscuits or graham crackers, crushed
  • 100g (7 tbsp) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar (optional)
  • 400g (14 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 200ml (¾ cup + 1 tbsp) heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 100g (½ cup) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp powdered gelatin (or agar-agar for vegetarian option), dissolved in 3 tbsp warm water
  • 150g (1 cup) fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 150g (¾ cup) granulated sugar
  • 100ml (⅓ cup + 1 tbsp) water
  • 100g (⅓ cup + 1 tbsp) sweetened condensed milk
  • 150g (5 oz) white chocolate, chopped
  • 8g (2 tsp) powdered gelatin, bloomed in 40ml cold water
  • Red food coloring or strawberry powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Crush digestive biscuits into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter and sugar. Press firmly into the base of a 6-inch dome silicone mold. Chill in fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Bloom gelatin for filling: Sprinkle 2 tsp powdered gelatin over 3 tbsp warm water and let sit.
  3. Make cheesecake filling: Beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Add bloomed gelatin and mix well. Whip heavy cream to stiff peaks and gently fold into cream cheese mixture.
  4. Fold in chopped strawberries gently.
  5. Assemble dome: Spoon filling into chilled crust-lined mold, smooth top, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Prepare mirror glaze: In a saucepan, combine sugar, water, and sweetened condensed milk. Heat until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, add white chocolate and stir until melted. Add bloomed gelatin and mix well. Strain glaze and add red food coloring or strawberry powder if desired. Cool to 86-95°F (30-35°C).
  7. Glaze dome: Unmold cheesecake onto cooling rack over a tray. Pour glaze evenly over dome. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Bloom gelatin properly for best texture. Keep glaze temperature between 86-95°F for perfect shine. Chill cheesecake fully before glazing to prevent glaze from sliding off. Use a hot, dry knife for clean slices. Vegan and gluten-free substitutions are possible with ingredient swaps.
