- Add the oil and blend on low for 10 seconds.125 ml coconut oil
- Pour into your cupcake tin and leave to set overnight in the fridge.
- Freeze the cheesecakes for one hour before serving, this sets them a little more whilst retaining their lovely creamy texture.
- Turn the cheesecakes out of the tin - use a warm cloth around the edge of the tin to loosen the cheesecakes if you are having any trouble.
- Top with very thin, very ripe melon slices folded into a snazzy shape.fresh melon
