Zesty coconut cheesecake with buttery base and tangy lime-passionfruit sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 x 250g packet butternut snap biscuits
  • 60g butter, melted
  • 5 gelatine sheets
  • 500g cream cheese, softened
  • 8.80 gm vanilla extract
  • 107.50 gm caster sugar
  • 270ml can coconut milk
  • 300ml thickened cream
  • 18.15 gm toasted coconut flakes
  • 2 passionfruit, halved
  • 21.00 gm lime juice
  • 20.00 gm caster sugar
Instructions:
  • Prepare a 6cm-deep, 22cm round springform pan by greasing the base and lining the sides with baking paper, ensuring the paper extends 2cm above the edge of the pan.
  • Pulse biscuits in a food processor until finely chopped. Add butter and process until mixture is well combined. Press the mixture onto the base of the pan and refrigerate while making the filling.
  • Soak gelatine in a small bowl of water and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften.
  • With an electric mixer, whip together cream cheese, vanilla, and sugar until the mixture is light and airy. Slowly incorporate coconut milk until well combined.
  • Remove excess water from the gelatin and place it in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until fully melted. Slowly mix the gelatin into the cream cheese mixture, then add the cream. Beat the mixture for 1 minute until well combined. Pour the mixture over the prepared base, ensuring the top is smooth. Refrigerate overnight or until firm.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine passionfruit pulp, lime juice, sugar, and 1 tablespoon of water. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Let it cool for 5 minutes before using.
  • Place the cheesecake onto a serving plate and artfully drizzle with warm sauce. Sprinkle with flaked coconut for extra crunch and flavor. Serve promptly for a delightful treat.
