Berry Cheesecake Trifle

Ingredients:

1. 500g quark (full-fat or low-fat, syn values may vary)
2. 2 tsp  vanilla extract
3. Sweetener to taste (e.g., granulated sweetener, liquid sweetener)
4. 500g mixed fresh berries ( strawberries,  raspberries, blueberries, blackberries – use your favorites!)
5. 6-8 wholemeal crispbreads (check Sy values, usually around 1-2 Sys each)
6. Optional: Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Make the “Cheesecake” Filling: In a bowl, whisk the quark and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy. Add sweetener to your taste, mixing well until dissolved.
2. Prepare the “Crunch”: Roughly crumble the wholemeal crispbreads. You don’t want a fine powder, some texture is nice!
3. Layer the Trifle: In a glass bowl or individual serving glasses, start by layering some of the crumbled wholemeal crispbreads.
4. Spoon a layer of the “cheesecake” filling over the crispbreads.
5. Arrange a layer of your mixed fresh berries on top of the filling.
6. Repeat these layers (crispbreads, “cheesecake” filling, berries) until your bowl or glasses are full, finishing with a layer of berries on top.
7. Chill & Serve: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the trifle to chill.
   Garnish: If desired, garnish with a few extra fresh berries and a sprig of fresh mint before serving.
8. Enjoy this guilt-free and refreshing Berry “Cheesecake” Trifle! It’s perfect for satisfying a sweet craving while staying on track .
