No-bake Jaffa Cake Cheesecake

Another recipe that I use a lot is my Jaffa Cake Cheesecake - If you don't know what Jaffa Cake's are then shame on you because they are so delicious! But seriously if you don't know then please Google it!

This is what it should look like when its finished and hopefully you will love it just as much as I do. It's safe to say that there is never any left in our house!

My Jaffa Cake Cheesecake


Ingredients
  • 1 x 250g packet plain biscuits

  • 100g butter, melted

  • 1 tablespoon caster sugar

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons powdered gelatine

  • 500g cream cheese

  • 500g milk cooking chocolate, chopped

  • 1 x 395g tin condensed milk

  • 1 cup thickened cream, whipped

Method

1.Break the biscuits to a rough crumb and the add the butter and sugar and mix well. Press firmly into the base of a roughly 26cm spring form cake tin and refrigerate.

2.Sprinkle the gelatine over 2/3 cup lukewarm water and stir until dissolved.

3.Place the chocolate in a microwave bowl and melt gently or do this over a pan of simmering water - whichever is easiest for you. Stir until the chocolate is just melted.

4.In a bowl, mix cream cheese and melted chocolate until light and fluffy  with electric whisk if possible. With the mixer running, pour in the condensed milk. Stir through the gelatine mixture, then fold through the whipped cream.

5. Pour half the mixture into the refrigerated tin then place back in the fridge to set for approx. 15-20minutes.

6. Layer whole Jaffa Cakes over the layer then pour the rest of the cream cheese mixture over the top to cover & refrigerate for approx.30 minutes. 

7. Place Jaffa Cakes on the top layer in the design that you wish & place back into the fridge for roughly 5-6 hours.

8. Serve alone or with ice cream!


Enjoy!
