1. Whizz the base ingredients in a food processor until they are like fine breadcrumbs.
2. Pour the crumb mixture into a bowl and add the melted butter. Mix everything together then tip into a springform cake tin.
3. Press it down with the back of a spoon so it is level, then put the tin in the fridge for 30 mins to firm up.
4. Meanwhile put the cream cheese, soured cream and icing sugar in a bowl and beat together until combined
5. In another bowl whisk the double cream until it is starting to form peaks. Pour the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture and fold gently together. Crush some of the maltesers (keep some aside for top) and fold to combine.
6. Take the tin containing the base from the fridge and tip the cream cheese mixture over the top of it. Spread it around to level it. Bang the tin on the work surface a couple of times to make sure there are no gaps.
7. Place in the fridge for an hour or two to set. Once ready to serve, remove from the fridge and press the remaining maltesers in to the topping. Cut and serve.
Cheesecake is my favourite dessert and who doesnt like Maltesers! My boyfriend made me it once for my birthday and got the recipe from him. Make it at every opportunity!
