6. Place the tray into the fridge and refrigerate the biscuit layer till it hardens(about 45mins or more).

Cheese Layer
1. Mix the sugar and gelatin powder in a medium bowl. Add hot water to dissolve the mixture. Stir well.
2. Cream the cream cheese with vanilla essence using a mixer.
3. Slowly add in the sugar/gelatin mixture(divide into approx 3 pourings) from 1. into the cream cheese  and continue to cream it until all sugar/gelatin mixture is added and the mixture becomes a thick cream.
4. Pour the mixture on top of the refrigerated biscuit layer evenly, checking that all corners are evenly covered.

If you intend to add strawberries, follow the steps below. Otherwise, you may just chill the cheese layer that was added above, in the fridge for about 2hours.
1. Wash the strawberries and dry them immediately.
2. Half the strawberries (total - 24 pcs)
3. Use a heart shape cutter to cut the halved strawberries into heart shapes.
4. Dry the strawberries with paper kitchen towels.
5. Arrange the heartshape strawberries on top of the cheese layer.
6. Chill for another 2 hours.

Jelly Layer
1. Very slowly pour the cooled Jelly/Jello over the chilled cream cheese layer. Pouring it too quickly might mess the cheese layer up.
2. Place the tray back into the fridge to let the Jelly/Jello set for another hour.
