  • A day before you plan to make your cheesecake, drain the yoghurt as explained above. Yield: 500 g of quark.
  • The next day, line a 21 cm springform pan with parchment paper (bottom and sides).
  • Place the cookies in a food processor and process into fine crumbs. Alternatively place the cookies in a freezer bag and use a rolling pin to crush the cookies.
  • Mix with 4 tablespoons melted coconut oil.
  • Press into the prepared pan and place in the fridge.
  • Pour the quark into a large bowl and mix with remaining coconut oil and sugar.
  • Place 200 ml quince juice and agartine (or apple juice and agar agar) in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Boil for two minutes and let cool for five minutes.
  • Mix with the quark mixture until everything is smooth.
  • Remove the pan from the fridge and pour the quark mixture over the cookie crust.
  • Refridgerate for 2 hours, then place the cake in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  • While it's in the fridge, prepare the caramelised apricots.
  • Place apricots and brown sugar in a small saucepan. (Can be the one you used before.)
  • Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar has melted, stirring constantly.
  • Mix remaining juice with cornstarch and stir well until there are no lumps left.
  • Pour over the apricots and cook for another two minutes, stirring.
  • Let cool.
  • Carefully remove the cake from its pan.
  • Place the apricots on top of the cake. Reserve some of the apricot caramel for serving.
  • Store in the fridge until you are ready to serve it.
  • This cake's leftovers are best stored in the fridge, too.
