With lots of fruit around at the moment you can mix any combination of berries or just use one of your favourites. The cheesecake is particular easy to make and even easier to serve as you don't have to find the time and trouble of portioning up.

Ingredients (serves 6)

½ packet Digestive biscuits

100g melted butter

100g full fat soft cheese

1 tbsp caster sugar

150ml double cream

Punnet of mixed fruits, raspberries, strawberries & blueberries

6 passion fruit cut into half

Method

1. Place the biscuits in a bowl and crush well, pour in the butter and stir; divide between six glasses and chill.

2. Put the soft cheese and caster sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric whisk for about 30 seconds or so until the sugar has dissolved.

3. In a separate bowl, whip the cream lightly until the "ribbon stage". Place the soft cheese into a bowl and fold in the cream. Pour into the glasses and chill in the fridge for 2 hours or more.

4. When set place a generous amount of washed summer fruits on top, cut the passion fruits into half and with a teaspoon scrape out the pulp over the mixed berries and serve.
