Ingredients
100g chocolate digestive biscuits
40g unsalted butter (melted)
200g full-fat cream cheese
50g powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
150ml double cream (heavy cream)
60g Maltesers (plus more for topping)
3 tbsp caramel sauce (optional)
6 Malteser truffles or chocolate balls
50g melted milk chocolate (for drizzling)
Instructions
1. Crush the chocolate digestive biscuits into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter until evenly combined.
2. Press the mixture firmly into the base of a muffin tin lined with paper cupcake liners. Chill for 30 minutes.
3. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. In another bowl, whip the double cream until soft peaks form, then fold into the cream cheese mixture.
5. Fold in some crushed Maltesers for texture, then spoon the filling onto the chilled bases.
6. Smooth the tops and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm.
7. Once set, top each cheesecake with whole Maltesers, Malteser truffles, or other crunchy chocolate decorations.
8. Drizzle with melted milk chocolate just before serving.
9. Carefully remove from liners and serve chilled.
10. Enjoy the perfect mix of creamy, crunchy, and chocolatey in every bite!
Notes
Always use full-fat cream cheese to help the cheesecakes set properly.
Don’t skip the chilling time—overnight is best for the perfect texture.
Decorate just before serving for the best presentation and crunch.
