This is a no-bake cheesecake recipe that I learned from an excellent cook when I was living in Spain. Over time, the recipe has been modified to my own style. All you need to do is mix the ingredients and chill them together, so there are no special troublesome tricks. It is a no-bake cheesecake, which my husband loves.

Baking the crust once will make it crispy. At Step 4, melt the gelatin in residual heat from baking the crust or heat up the gelatin in a 500 W microwave for 1.5 minutes. Make sure to keep an eye on the gelatin so it doesn't boil. Recipe by Bakaryau
