Ingredients

For the base

  • 320 g gluten free digestive biscuits or any other biscuit/cookie you prefer
  • 150 g butter or dairy free alternative

For the cheesecake

  • 600 g mascarpone 500g-650g works fine (or any full fat cream cheese)
  • 100 g icing sugar
  • 225 g white chocolate
  • 300 ml double cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200 g fresh strawberries chopped

For the topping

  • extra chunks of white chocolate
  • extra fresh strawberries

Instructions

  • Crush your gluten free digestives. Either do this with a food processor or in a sandwich bag and hit them with a rolling pin. You can make them quite small or have some chunkier bits.
  • Melt your butter - I do this in the microwave.
  • Pour your melted butter into your crushed biscuits and mix together.
  • Press your biscuit mixture into the tin you are going to be making your cheesecake in. Press it down nice and firmly.
  • Place it in the fridge to chill whilst you make your cheesecake top. (I leave mine in the fridge for at least 30 minutes)
  • Melt your white chocolate, either in the microwave or over a ban marie. Leave to cool.
  • To make your cheesecake filling mix together your cream cheese, icing sugar and vanilla extract. I use my KitchenAid to do this on a low/medium setting for only about 10-20 seconds. You could you an electric hand mixer too - I find this works really well.
  • Add in the double cream and keep mixing until it firms up a little. (I had the KitchenAid on a medium setting for just under 2 minutes for this - try not to over mix though... don't let it split!)
  • Pour in your melted white chocolate and mix in briefly to combine. Ensure the white chocolate is melted but also cool - you don't want hot melted chocolate!
  • Fold through your chopped fresh strawberries.
  • Spread your mixture on top of the biscuit base and place in the fridge to chill overnight.
  • To decorate place some white chocolate chunks, strawberries and also grate some white chocolate on top.
  • Keep refrigerated until serving and if you have leftovers. Enjoy!

Notes

I use a 20cm loose bottom deep tin, but you could also use a springform tin.
I also like to add some pieces of meringue to the topping to make it a more eton mess style cheesecake!
