2. Pour this mixture into a mold and flatten it so that it is very flat. We store this layer in the fridge while we prepare the next layer.
3. In a saucepan, place a cup of milk, the cream, the cream cheese and the sugar. Stir and bring it to a simmer. Do not stop stirring it to prevent it from sticking.
4. In the other reserved glass of milk, pour the two packages of curd and stir constantly avoiding lumps from forming. Add this mixture to the preparation that we have in the pot.
5. When the mixture begins to boil, remove from heat. Let it rest.
6. Once this mixture is warm, pour it over the mold that we made in step # 1. Let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
7. When the cake has set, take it out of the mold and apply the jam as you like.

Some suggestions

As we told you before, this cake has a high percentage of sugar. Therefore, even if you are tempted to eat a few servings, keep in mind that a single piece already provides you with 1/4 of the recommended daily portion of sugar. If you want to live better in health, everything, including a delicious cheesecake and strawberry jam, should be consumed in moderation.

But if you still want to make your cake lighter, we suggest you take this into account when gathering your ingredients. For example, you can use skim milk, cream cheese, and light jam. With this you will be reducing energy consumption at the same time that you enjoy without guilt.

Regarding the jam, this time we offered you the recipe with strawberry jam. But if you like, you can use another. You may prefer to try a blueberry or pineapple jam. On the other hand, if you want to decorate your cake, to make it more attractive, add pieces of strawberry on top. The important thing is that you enjoy both making and eating this light dessert.
