Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a bowl, beat the 8 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup condensed milk, and 1 tbsp lemon juice until smooth. Pour into a small dish or ramekin and freeze for 2 hours, until firm.

  2. Step 2

    In a small saucepan, heat the 1/4 cup jam over medium until bubbling and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Let cool.

  3. Step 3

    Melt the 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1 tbsp butter in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Spread thinly on a parchment-lined plate and freeze for 10 minutes, until hard.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the cheesecake from the freezer. Spoon the cooled jam over the top. Break the chocolate into shards and scatter over the jam. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

  5. Step 5

    Serve immediately, or keep frozen until ready to eat.
