Gather your loved ones for Easter and indulge in a rich chocolate fudge cheesecake.
Ingredients:
  • 250g packet plain chocolate biscuits (see note)
  • 150g butter, melted
  • 500g cream cheese, softened
  • 141.90 gm caster sugar
  • 8.80 gm vanilla essence
  • 189.38 gm thickened cream
  • Whipped cream, to serve
  • Easter eggs, to serve
  • Caramel sauce, to serve
  • 200g block milk chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 x 395g can sweetened condensed milk
  • 25g butter, chopped
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 160C/140C fan-forced. Use a food processor to finely crush the biscuits. Blend in the butter until well combined. Firmly press the mixture onto the base and sides of a 21cm round springform cake pan. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • To create rich fudge, combine chocolate, condensed milk, and butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Continuously stir for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Remove from heat and let it stand for 2 minutes before proceeding.
  • Drizzle the fudge over the base, spreading it out evenly. Let it sit.
  • With an electric mixer, blend cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, mix well after each addition. Pour in cream and blend for 3 minutes until slightly thickened. Pour over fudge layer and place the pan on a baking tray.
  • Bake the cheesecake for 50 minutes, or until it is just set with a slight wobble in the center. Turn off the oven, cool the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar, then refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Serve with whipped cream, Easter eggs, and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
