Method
- Grease your cheesecake tin.
- Melt the butter.
- Crush the biscuits into crumbs and stir in the melted butter until the biscuit crumbs start to stick together.
- Press the biscuit crumbs down into the bottom of the cheesecake tin(s)
- Melt the chocolate, then stir in the creme fraiche.
- In another bowl, beat the cream cheese and vanilla extract and then beat in the egg.
- Fold in the chocolate mixture.
- Pour over the biscuit base and bang the tin down on the work surface a couple of times to remove any large air bubbles.
- Cook for about 30 mins on a 'gentle' oven setting. They are done when they do not wobble.
- Cool for several hours and serve chilled.
This recipe assumes you are making miniature cheesecakes. If you are making a large one, it will take much longer to cook and you may need a higher temperature.
