Sweet!!! No Bake chocolate cheesecake

I heart cheesecake with all my life and i can eat not just singular pot fulls of the stuff, i can probably manage a half portion of an 18" round dish in one single sitting. Disgusting, no? Sweet, yes! I'm all for easypeasy cheesecake - ie. no bake kind and having scoured the net, i found a few recipes i will be experimenting with to kick start a rather sweet Friday soiree.

This one is from one of my fave sites - BBC Goodfood, although i did spot some similar yummy ones over at All Recipes and UKTV Food.

Feeds 8 hungry big people.
What you need:
  • For the base:
  • 4oz gingernut biscuits
  • 4oz hobnobs
  • 4oz unsalted butter
  • For the filling:
  • 200g extra light philly cheese - at room temperature
  • 300ml tub of double cream
  • 200g galaxy chocolate - I used dark chocolate which i melted before crushing biscuits
  • Garnish (optional):
  • Melted dark chocolate to make swirls
  • Grated white chocolate
Make it!

First of all grease base of tin - melt chocolate.


Make the base- melt butter and add crushed biscuits. Press down in the bottom of the tin.


Whip the cream then and add philly cheese( which should be at room temperature.) Mix well then add melted chocolate and add topping to tin.


Now garnish as desired and chill overnight to set.
