INGREDIENTS…
Makes 8 individual cheesecakes
• For the base:
200g digestives
100g butter
1 chocolate honeycomb bar
For the filling:
330g full fat cream cheese
170ml double cream
125g icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
5 multipack sized chocolate honeycomb bars
• To decorate:
80ml double cream, whipped
2 chocolate honeycomb bars, chopped
10 squares milk chocolate, melted
INSTRUCTIONS…
Crush the biscuits and chocolate honeycomb bar in a food bag with a rolling pin until really fine crumbs.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan and then pour in the crumbs. Stir well to combine.
Add about 2 dessertspoons of crumbs into each glass pudding pot. Press in firmly with the back of a spoon. Place in the fridge while you make the filling.
While you have the rolling pin out, crush the chocolate honeycomb bars in a food bag and set aside.
Whip a 250ml carton of double cream in your Kenwood stand mixer until it just holds its shape. Remove to a small bowl and set aside.
Add the cream cheese, vanilla and icing sugar to the stand mixer bowl and mix for about 1-2 mins until combined.
Fold the majority of the whipped cream gently into the cheese mixture. Then add the crushed Chocolate honeycomb bars and combine - don’t overmix.
Spoon onto the chilled biscuit bases and spread evenly. Use the back of a knife or angled spatula to smooth out the tops.
Chill in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight.
When ready to serve, melt the chocolate and drizzle over each cheesecake.
Add the remaining whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle and pipe on a blob in the middle. Add some chopped chocolate honeycomb bar.
Serve straight away and enjoy. Will keep for 2-3 days in the fridge.
