Cheesecake mixture: Briefly mix all the ingredients together and pour into the glasses on top of the biscuit base. Seal the glasses with a cover or kitchen film. Fill a pan with approx. 2 cm of water and bring to the boil. Place the glasses in the water, cover the pan and allow to simmer (do not boil) for 20-25 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to stand for a short time before removing the glasses from the water. Allow the glasses to cool down completely and then place the cheesecakes in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours or overnight.

For the strawberry sauce, purée all the ingredients in a food processor. Shortly before serving, distribute the sauce evenly on the 8 glasses and decorate with the leaves.
Suggestions
Instead of double cream cheese use a mixture of 250 g of ricotta and 150 g of mascarpone or 400 g of quark (curd cheese) according to personal taste. If desired, poach the cheesecakes in the oven, making sure to follow the oven manufacturer's instructions.
