  • ~40g cocoa powder and top with a thin layer of caramel sauce, followed by some dark chocolate (grated or melted and drissled over the top) for a millionaire’s shortbread styled cheesecake

Directions

  1. Grease and line a loose-bottomed cake tin (~22cm tin) with parchment
  2. Crush the biscuits to create a crumb.
  3. Melt the butter.
  4. Mix the biscuit crumbs and butter until fully combined and add to the cake tin. Press down firmly to create an even base and chill in the fridge for about an hour- this will help it to set.
  5. Whip the double cream to stiff peaks.
  6. Mix the icing sugar, cream cheese, vanilla extract, and crushed maltesers. Then fold in the double cream and mix until combined.
  7. Spoon the mixture over your biscuit base and smooth it out. At this point you can decorate the cheesecake with more maltesers.
  8. Refrigerate for at least an hour. After this you can remove it from the cake tin and serve on a plate.
