Zingy Orange Cheesecake

A great dinner party dessert that packs plenty of citrusy punch – this cheesecake recipe can be chilled in advance, making it hassle free too. 

Ingredients

Serves: 8

16 digestive biscuits, crushed

50g butter, melted

250g cream cheese, softened

400ml whipping cream, whipped

2 large oranges, zested and juiced

½ tsp vanilla essence

Method

1) Stir together the crushed digestive biscuits and melted butter and use this mixture to line the base of a 12” flan ring. Leave the biscuit base to chill in the fridge.

2) Gently fold together the cream cheese, whipped cream, vanilla essence and orange zest. Slowly add the orange juice to the mix a little at a time.

3) Pour the orange filling mixture onto your chilled base then return to the fridge for 4 hours for it to set.

4) Slice and serve with pouring cream or ice cream.
