Here is another mouthwatering recipe by Nadia Sawalha. Her Layered Cranberry Cheesecake is truly yummy! Try it for yourself. Enjoy!

Makes: 6

Prep time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

1 orange, zest and juice

250g cranberries

8 tbsp. Granulated sugar (we used Splenda as it is really soft)

75g mazso crackers

50g low fat margarine, melted

275g light cream cheese

150g low fat yoghurt

Method

1. Put the orange juice in to a pan along with the cranberries and 3tbsp. of the Granulated sugar. Put over a low heat and cook for around 5 minutes until the fruits are just beginning to burst. Cool.

2. Place the crackers in a freezer bag and crush until they are crumbs. Add 2tbsp of the granulated sugar to the cracker crumbs and give the bag a little shake. Pour in the melted margarine. Close the bag and massage in to the crumbs.

3. Mix together the cream cheese and yoghurt with the last 3 tbsp. of the Granulated sugar.

4. To serve, layer all of the components in to some pretty glasses or ramekins finishing with a spoonful of the cranberries.
