Strawberry and White Chocolate Cheesecake
4 stars based on 13 reviews
Ingredients
- 40 g unsalted butter
- 100 g digestive biscuits
- 300g strawberries hulled and quartered
- 2 tbsp blackcurrant cordial
- 500 g mascarpone cheese
- 4 tbsp icing sugar
- 1/2tsp vanilla extract
- 100 g white chocolate roughly chopped
Method
- Melt the butter over a medium heat. Set aside. Place the biscuits in a strong plastic bag and bash to make fine crumbs. Tip into the pan with the melted butter and mix to combine. Divide the mixture between 6 large glass dishes, pressing down well. Chill in the fridge for 10 minutes. Place a half a cup of strawberries in a bowl and pour over the blackcurrant cordial. In another bowl mix together the mascarpone, icing sugar, vanilla extract, the rest of the strawberries and white chocolate. Spoon on top of the biscuit base, levelling off the surface. Spoon the strawberries and blackcurrant cordial on top. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.

This is absolutely delicious! Im also not a great lover of white chocolate but with the strawberry combination it really makes a difference, so easy to make as well, mind you we did use chocolate biscuits instead of plain digestives, apparently my daughter picked them up by mistake? We now make it on a regular basis as all the family ask for it, 10 out of 10 a great recipe.

I have been making this for guests at a 3 day fund raiser for MacMillan and it was a smash hit. Not one untouched or unfinished and lots of requests for how to make it! It's a firm family favourite now too, as I've been asked to make it for the next 2 family get togethers.
