Description

Who doesn’t love a no bake cheesecake. You can substitute the Mars Bar with any chocolate bar you like.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 250g plain chocolate biscuits, broken in half (see note)
  • 90g cold butter, cubed
  • 500g cream cheese, cubed
  • 50g thickened cream
  • 80g sugar
  • 2 x 53g mars bars, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. Into bowl add roughly broken up chocolate biscuits. Blitz on speed 9 until fine.
  2. Add cold butter. Blitz on speed 6 for 30-45 secs until a soft dough forms.
  3. Press this into a springform tin. I line my tin with baking paper for easy removal. Set aside.
  4. Add cream cheese to bowl. Blitz on speed 7 for 45 secs. Scrape down.
  5. Add vanilla and sugar. Blitz on speed 4 for 1 minute. Scrape down.
  6. Add cream and blitz on speed 4 for 1 minute or until creamy and smooth.
  7. Stir through HALF of the chopped mars bar on speed 4 until mixed through.
  8. Pour mixture over the biscuit base
  9. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours but overnight ideally.
  10. Just before serving sprinkle the other half of the chopped mars bars over the top.
  11. Use a warm knife to cut cheesecake (run it under hot water).

Notes

  • A more cost effective option for the base is using a plain biscuit and 15g cocoa powder.
  • When using cream cheese without gelatine for cheesecake be sure to buy the full fat version and the non spreadable version otherwise your cheesecake may not set. I find the Philadelphia blocks or Homebrand tubs work best for these no bake cheesecakes.
