No Bake Black Plum (Jamuns) Cheesecakes are refreshing summer dessert and best of all, there is no need to turn on the oven,just enjoy with fresh black jamuns. This fun and easy summer dessert recipe is sure to impress and requires just a few simple steps.  

June month Shhhh Secretly Cooking Challenge ,I was paired with Sharanya Palanisshami who gave me two lovely ingredients Jamun and Cream Cheese.I made "No Bake Black Plum (Jamun) Cheesecake with her secret ingredients.Its Not that difficult and once you taste it, you will fall for it.

The first step is to prepare the crust and that means just ground some digestive biscuits, stir it with melted butter .Cheesecake filling is also so simple to make. It’s perfect idea how to use summer fruits to make delicious treat. The whole process of making the No Bake Black Plum (Jamun) Cheesecakes with the crust is not very labor intensive, but they have to chill in the freezer or fridge for a while. I eat it all with a spoon; it was perfect refreshment after a hard working day. 

The rich cream cheese and the other ingredients are so delicious.These No Bake Black Plum (Jamun) Cheesecakes have the gelatin in the filling so you can choose whether to serve them frozen right from the freezer as ice cream or from the fridge. When they are not frozen they are much smoother and creamier but it’s totally up to you guys. Forget the oven and enjoy this perfect summer treat- beautiful No bake cheesecakes can be done in all our houses.
