Ingredients

For the base:

  • 320 g gluten-free digestive biscuits
  • 150 g butter melted

For the filling:

  • 600 g mascarpone or cream cheese always full fat
  • 100 g icing sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 300 ml double cream
  • 250 g white chocolate

To decorate:

  • white chocolate Lindt truffles the white ones are gluten free!

Instructions

  • Firstly, make your base. Crush your gluten free biscuits - either place them in a sandwich bag and hit them with a rolling pin or you can place them in a food processor and blitz, but don't over blitz them into a fine dust!
  • Melt your butter - I do this in the microwave on a medium power (600W) for around 30 seconds to 1 minute. But if it melts before this time, stop - it's done!
  • Pour your melted butter into your crushed biscuits and mix together in a bowl.
  • Press your biscuit mixture into the tin you are going to be making your cheesecake in. Press it down nice and firmly. I use a 20cm loose bottom tin (linked above and below).
  • 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 mascarpone (cream cheese), icing sugar and vanilla extract. I use my electric hand mixer to do this on a low/medium setting for only about 10-20 seconds. You could use a stand mixer too.
  • 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.
  • Spread your mixture on top of the biscuit base and place in the fridge to chill overnight.
  • Once fully set remove from the tin and decorate with grated white chocolate and Lidt white chocolate truffles.
  • Keep refrigerated until serving, or if you have any leftovers. Enjoy!
