Currant cheesecake is perfect for a coffee party in the garden or on the balcony. Summer is just taking a little break here again, but I like to sweeten the mood with a piece of cake.

Our cheesecake today consists of two simple steps. The base is a simple shortbread, and the filling is a fine cheesecake. The whole thing is topped with ripe currants. An irresistible combination.

I love making cheesecake because it’s quick and easy. Besides, it just tastes good to everyone. Ok, there are supposed to be people who don’t like cheesecake, which I can’t understand at all. The base is quickly made from flour, raw cane sugar, margarine and cold water. I process the ingredients in my Magimix with the S-shaped blade. After a few minutes, a uniform dough is formed. This is then also immediately put into the springform pan and incorporated. Poke a few more holes with a fork to keep the bottom from curving during baking and off to the fridge.

The filler is also made in a flash by blending all ingredients in a high-powered blender to a fine, creamy liquid. Take the base out of the refrigerator, pour in the filling and smooth it out. Now add the currants on top of the filling, press lightly and put in the oven. Bake for 60 minutes and the fine currant cheesecake is ready.

Here is some more info about currants. They not only look good, but also have it in them, in a positive sense. The red berry are particularly rich in vitamin C, iron and potassium. In addition to vitamins and minerals, blackcurrants in particular contain substances that can have a positive effect on our skin. In this context, researchers have found that regular consumption of the dark currant variety increases collagen levels in certain cells of the skin.

TIP: I always buy organic quality, especially gooseberry plants. These can absorb a lot of pesticides and other chemicals through the thin skin.

If you’re in the mood for a different cheesecake today, I recommend the following variations:
