Lemon Cheesecake is a no-bake dessert made without gelatine with lemon flavor. An ideal dessert to be served at parties.
Most of my readers are not too comfortable using gelatin in their cooking…either it is not easily available or maybe they do not like its smell. Whatever the reason, this recipe does not demand any gelatin and yet sets so well that you can cut it out easily into bars or wedges.
