Recipe
To start the base, cookies are crushed until they resemble sand. Butter can be melted in the microwave, or a healthier option can be coconut oil. Mix the crumbs with the melted fat until everything sticks together. If you need a quick crush, seal the cookies in a bag and crush with a rolling pin or a sturdy bottle. The mixture is pressed into a mold and chilled for about an hour to set the crust.

On the other side, the cake comes together by following the gelatin manufacturer’s directions. The prepared gelatin is then blended with cream cheese, lemon juice, zest, skim milk, a preferred sweetener, and vanilla extract. The final touch is adding the cold gelatin to the mixture. Once everything is well combined, pour the batter into the mold and refrigerate for roughly five hours for a clean slice and firm texture.
Krisk a coating can be added on top, such as a tart red fruit jam, or a crunchy finish like a layer of homemade granola to give it extra texture and color.
