Ingredients

  • 25g unsalted butter, melted
  • 75g digestive biscuits (about 5 biscuits)
  • 25g roasted chopped hazelnuts
  • 2 x 73g Cadbury Puds Minis

Coulis

  • 200g frozen raspberries
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar

Cheesecake

  • 180ml whipping cream
  • 180g pack Belgian white chocolate, finely chopped
  • 200g soft cheese
  • 100g No.1 Strained Natural Greek Yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste

Method

  1. Start by making the coulis. Put the raspberries and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and crush the fruit with the back of a fork. Bubble for 2 minutes, then take off the heat and press through a sieve into a bowl, discarding the pips; set aside.

  2. For the cheesecake, heat the cream in a large pan to just below boiling point. Take off the heat, add the white chocolate and set aside for 5 minutes, then stir until smooth. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, use a wooden spoon to beat the soft cheese, yogurt and vanilla together until combined. Use a balloon whisk to incorporate the chocolate mixture until combined and thickened; set aside.

  3. For the biscuit base, put the melted butter, biscuits, hazelnuts and 4 Puds Minis in a food processor. Pulse to a rough crumb. Divide among 6 glasses (or shallow glass bowls). Top with the cheesecake mixture, then a swirl of coulis. Finish with extra Puds Minis, halved. Chill for 2-24 hours before serving.
