Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Biscuit Base

  1. Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-lock bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
  2. Mix the melted butter into the biscuit crumbs until combined.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into a lined baking tin, creating an even layer. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to set.

  2. Place them in a microwave-safe bowl with 100ml of thickened cream.

  2. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake filling.

5. Assemble and Set

  1. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the chilled biscuit base, smoothing out the top.
  2. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to firm up.
