Notes
Please taste the cheesecake filling before pouring into the dish. You will need to adjust the amount of sweetener and peppermint essence according to YOUR tastes and liking for a strong or mild mint flavour.
If you don't want to go to the effort of using gelatin and sweetener, you may wish to swap these out for mint sugar-free jello/jelly that would make 500ml/2cups of jelly/jello.
