No Bake Yogurt Cheese Cake With Nectarine Compote

This is a quickie cheesecake I made for hubby's birthday this year. No time to bake ! Hubby can't blame me cause I have all the excuses.... haha.... However, I'm really glad I made this cause its been so hot over here for the past couple of months. If not mistaken it haven't been raining for almost two months already.... the last time I saw it was during the monsoon season. LOL. And this is the main reason I decided to made this no bake cheese cake.

And here's what I did.

5  dried dates, chopped (optional)
a pinch of salt

(3) add in yogurt, Nunaturals liquid, lime juice & rinds and beat till well combined.

Ingredients for homemade nectarine compote :

3 TB  sugar
1 lemon juice & zest

Ingredients for decoration :
2 large kiwi fruit, skinned & cut small
1 TB  syrup
1 cup   homemade nectarine compote
200gm  dark chocolate, chopped

TO ASSEMBLE :
(1) melt chocolate over a double boiler method then spread melted chocolate to a hard plastic sheet and leave to cool completely or keep refrigerated to set.
(2) add syrup to kiwi fruit and mix well.
(3) now, breaks cooled chocolate into nice big pieces and decorate it over the cake.
(4) top the cake with kiwi fruit & nectarine compote and chilled before serving.

This cake is done just 10 mins before serving. haha..... How daring am I !!!
