Malteser & Honeycomb Cheesecake

Malteser Cheesecake 1One of the best things about being a grown up and having your own family is starting your own traditions, and this cheesecake has started to become one of these.  And not just at Christmas time, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve made this now and it always goes down a treat.  There are lots of Malteser Cheesecake recipes out there so I can’t take credit for it really, this is just my take on it.

What You Need

For the base:

  • 100g digestive biscuits
  • 200g Maltesers
  • 125g melted butter, plus extra for buttering the pan

For the filling:

  • 800g cream cheese
  • 200ml sour cream
  • 200g icing sugar
  • Couple of drops of vanilla extract
  • 100ml double cream
  • A ‘grab bag’ of roughly crushed Maltesers
  • Three Crunchie bars, roughly crushed

To top:

  • Whole Matesers
  • Crushed Crunchies
  • Quartered Glacier Cherries or Rainbow Sprinkles

Malteser Cheesecake 2What You Do

  • Generously butter a large flan dish
  • Crush the biscuits and base Maltesers either in a food processor or in a freezer bag with a rolling pin until a fine crumb consistency
  • Mix biscuit mix with the melted butter, press tightly into the base of the dish and chill for at least half an hour
  • Beat the cream cheese, sour cream, icing sugar and vanilla in a bowl until less stiff and well combined (a food mixer can save on arm muscle exertion!)
  • Beat the double cream to soft peaks and then fold into the cream cheese mixture, along with the crushed Maltesers and Crunchies.
  • Pour onto the biscuit base and spread out to a smooth, even finish.  Chill for at least two hours and then decorate with the Maltesers, crushed Crunchies and cherries.
