No-bake Black Lime and Gingernut Cheesecakes
Ingredients
- 250g gingernut biscuits
- 70g salted butter, melted
- 140g white sugar
- 20ml lime juice
- 1 rounded tsp Australian Black Lime Powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 500g Philadelphia full fat cream cheese, 1 hr out of fridge to slightly soften
- 350ml thickened cream (heavy whipping cream), cold
- 20g dark chocolate, shaved
Directions
- Using a food processor, blitz gingernut biscuits into a fine crumb.
- Tip the crumb into a medium bowl and add melted butter, mix until well combined.
- Divide the mixture into 6 wide glasses that can hold around 250-300ml volume.
- Use a smaller cup to press down into the wide glass to tightly compact the crumb into an even surface, set aside in the fridge for later. In a large bowl mix sugar, lime juice, Black Lime powder and vanilla extract together with a tablespoon.
- Add the cream cheese and roughly stir the mixture together so the sugar isn’t loose in the bowl. Use electric beaters on a low speed first to incorporate the ingredients before increasing the speed. Beat until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Add the cream and use electric beaters on a low speed to bring the ingredients together.
- Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until the cream starts to thicken and stiff peaks form.
- Divide the cheesecake mixture onto the crumb bases in the 6 glasses, using a spoon or piping bag.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 6 hours to set. Sprinkle with dark chocolate before serving.
