Ingredients
Method
Ingredients
- 350g digestive biscuits
- ½ cup desiccated coconut
- 200g butter, melted
- 500g Philadelphia Cream Cheese, room temperature
- ⅔ cup caster sugar
- 1tsp vanilla extract or essence
- ⅓ cup cornflour
- 3 eggs
- 125g Cadbury white chocolate, melted
- 500g sour cream
Optional
- Fresh berries
- Pams Fruit Puffs
- Handful of chopped pistachios
Method
- Preheat your oven to 170℃ fan bake. In a food processor, blitz the biscuits until they are a sandy consistency. Add the coconut and melted butter, and pulse until just combined. Press into a large, greased pie dish, including the sides, then refrigerate.
- Place the cream cheese and caster sugar into a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or large bowl. Beat until smooth, then add the vanilla and cornflour and mix until incorporated.
- With the mixer running, add one egg at a time and incorporate it entirely before adding the next egg. In a separate bowl, mix together the cooled white chocolate and sour cream, then add to the cream cheese mixture along and mix with a pinch of salt until combined.
- Pour the cheesecake filling into the biscuit case. Wrap the base of the pie dish in tinfoil, then place into the oven with a tray of water on the shelf beneath and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until set with a slight wobble.
- Once the cheesecake has baked, allow it to cool to room temperature then refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours. Decorate the cheesecake with your choice of rocky road inspired toppings, then serve and enjoy!
