I recently made a no bake cheesecake for the first time using the BBC good food recipe. I didn't add lemon juice, substituted the vanilla pod for essence, and used castor sugar instead of icing. If it's at all relevant, I used half Philadelphia and half Lidls own brand soft cheese. It was perfect and delicious!
The 2nd time I made it, I used icing sugar, and all Lidls cheese, and it would not set, tasted fine though.
My third attempt I went back to the castor sugar, used Sainsbury soft cheese, not only did it not set, the cream and the cheese seemed to separate!
I haven't changed any of the method, used the same utensils, and the base has been fine.
Any tips or ideas of what I did wrong gratefully accepted!
