Royal cheesecake without rolling out the dough: how to make a dessert

Despite its sophisticated name, the royal cheesecake is extremely easy to prepare. That's because you don't need to knead and roll out the dough - the dessert is made on the basis of shortbread crumbs. This makes the texture of the cheesecake very fluffy and soft.
