Decadent cheesecake filling atop a fudgy chocolate brownie crust - a truly indulgent treat.
Ingredients:
  • 300g shop-bought brownies, roughly broken
  • 57.20 gm honey
  • 1/2 titanium-strength gelatine leaf
  • 200ml thickened cream
  • 500g cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 35g icing sugar
  • 2 x 250g punnets strawberries, hulled, halved
  • 110g caster sugar
Instructions:
  • Prepare a 21cm x 11cm loaf pan by greasing and lining it with baking paper.
  • Pulse brownies in a food processor to create fine crumbs. Melt butter and honey in a saucepan over medium heat, then add to the processor and pulse until combined. Press mixture into lined loaf pan and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes to set.
  • Soak gelatine in a refreshing bath of cold water for 5 minutes.
  • In a small saucepan, heat 100ml cream over medium heat until just below boiling point. Remove from heat. Squeeze out excess water from gelatine, then stir into the cream until smooth. Strain and let it cool slightly.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat softened cream cheese and icing sugar for 5 minutes until smooth. Add the gelatine mixture and 100ml cream, beat until combined. Pour over the chocolate brownie base in the pan, then smooth with a palette knife. Chill in the fridge overnight to set.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, combine strawberries and caster sugar. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until strawberries are tender and syrup thickens. Let it cool, cover, and chill overnight.
  • Cut the cheesecake into wedges and enjoy with fresh strawberries and their syrup.
