Spicy ginger nut base with a tangy lemony
creamy filling makes these cheese cakes decadent and tasty.
For the base:
250 grams
ginger biscuits
100g
butter melted

250g cream cheese (Italian mascarpone)
100g icing sugar
50 ml double cream
1/2 teaspoon lemon essence
100g icing sugar
50 ml double cream
1/2 teaspoon lemon essence
½ teaspoon lemon zest
For Garnish:
White chocolate swirls and milk chocolate lemon chocolate
segments
Method:
Make the base:
1. Put
the biscuits in a plastic food bag and crush to make crumbs using a rolling pin.
2.
Transfer the crumbs to a bowl and then pour over the melted butter.
3. Mix
thoroughly until the crumbs are completely coated and you have a coarse sand
like texture.
4.Spoon the mixture into 6 individual serving glasses to form a
layer approx 1.5 inches thick. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour to set firmly.
Make the filling:
5. In a bowl add the cream cheese, the cream, the lemon essence, lemon zest and the icing sugar.
6. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until it’s thick, smooth and creamy. Place a star nozzle in a large piping bag and fill it with the mascarpone mixture. Keep aside in fridge until ready to use.
7. Remove the biscuit filled glasses from the fridge and pipe a generous layer of the mascarpone mixture on onto the chilled biscuit base. Return the glasses to the fridge to chill for 1 hour.
8. To serve garnish with some white chocolate
swirls and lemon chocolate segments.
