This Jelly Cheesecake is delicious and very simple to make. It does not require baking. You just need to have a little bit of patience and let the fridge do all the work.
The combination of colors, flavor and aroma is very pleasant. You’re in for a treat. This cake is great for a relaxing Sunday afternoon with your family and friends. A cup of coffee or tea will go very well with this.
This creamy cheesecake can have any flavour you like. We use orange flavor for this particular recipe, but you can have lemon, strawberry, or even coffee flavor.
We use gelatin to make this cake. Some people might use Jell-O (but it’s not 100% strict keto). If you were to use orange-flavored sugar-free Jello, you won’t need gelatin, orange extract, orange zest and natural food color for this recipe. Everything else in the recipe remains the same.
Some people might call this Jelly Jaffa Cheesecake. All you need to do is to make the almond chocolate crust, then add jelly and cream cheese filling in and refrigerate for 6 hours to set and serve. Here’s a preview of the whole process.

You can decorate with melted chocolate with butter in equal proportions. With 1/8 cup of each, you will get results identical to those in the photo.
