Just putting it out there, this may be my best recipe yet! A creamy cheesecake, with a cookie base, cookie dough layer and cookie dough balls throughout. With Christmas just around the corner,  it’s the perfect indulgent dessert for the festive season. It’s so simple to make and you don’t even have to turn the oven on!
I made it in 3 easy steps, the base, the cookie dough and the cheesecake mixture. The cookie dough is the same as used in the condensed milk cookies I made a few months back and contains no egg so is therefore safe to eat raw. I made a whole batch of the cookie dough, used half of it in the cheesecake and used the other half to bake 15 cookies (just follow the cooking instructions from my cookie post). You could do this too, the cookies only take 12 minutes to bake and are great to have in the house for Christmas visitors. However, if you don’t want to bake extra cookies, or just don’t trust yourself to have so many yummy treats available, simply half the cookie dough recipe below.
Ingredients:
For the base: 200g cookies (e.g. Maryland)
80g unsalted butter
For the cookie dough:
225g unsalted butter
225g soft brown sugar
170g condensed milk
350g self-raising flour (you can use plain if not baking half the mixture)
1 tsp vanilla extract
100g chocolate chips/bar (I used 100g bar of dark chocolate, chopped)
For the cheesecake mixture
300ml double cream
250g mascarpone cheese
250g full-fat soft cheese
1tsp vanilla extract
150g icing sugar
  Method:
To make the the base crush the biscuits, either in a food processor or in a freezer bag with a rolling pin, until they are fine crumbs. Melt the butter, mix with the cookie crumbs and press into a 20cm round loose bottom/springform cake tin. Put in the fridge to set while you make the other parts.
Make the cookie dough beat the sugar, butter and condensed milk until pale. Stir in the flour and chocolate. Divide into two, save half for the cheesecake and use the other half to make 15 cookies using this recipe.
Take the half of the cookie dough you have saved for the cheesecake and divide this in half again. Use one half (1/4 of the total cookie dough) to press on top of the cookie base to create a cookie dough layer (visible in the photo below). Used the remaining dough to make 12 cookie dough balls and set to one side.
To make the cheesecake mixture simply whisk all the ingredients together with an electric whisk until stiff. Make sure it’s really thick to ensure it sets properly! (I used the whisk attachment on my food processor, you can also use a hand held electric whisk or the whisk on a stand mixture). Smooth half top of the cookie & cookie dough base. Then place 6 of the cookie dough balls in a circle and spoon the remaining  cheesecake mixture on top and smooth. Arrange the remaining cookie dough balls around the edge on top of the finished cheesecake and push in slightly. I grated some chocolate around too to finish it off.
Return to the fridge for at least a 3 hours, if not over night.
  You can see the delicious layers here, a truly decadent treat! I am so happy with this recipe, the only problem being I want to eat it all! Ours lasted in the fridge a week, and while I am not qualified to dictate the ‘use by’ date, it was certainly OK this long for us.
I will certainly be making this over the Christmas period and indulging in it again myself! It really is an easy dessert which I think looks pretty special and tastes even better!
Until next time,
Emily x

Beans on toast cake!
Beans on toast cake!
Today I am sharing with you a cake I made for my boyfriend’s birthday last month.

I was thinking of his favourite football team, band, game and then it hit me- beans on toast, his favourite meal!
However, at this point I had no idea how I was going to get the…

No cook, 4 ingredient, Salted Caramel and Reece's Pieces fudge
No cook, 4 ingredient, Salted Caramel and Reece’s Pieces fudge
So it’s Halloween tomorrow and although I don’t personally celebrate it I thought this fudge looked suitable for the occasion! The Reece’s Pieces colours certainly look Halloween-y, it could be made orange or even green, and could definitely be used as a treat to hand out or for a Halloween party! Best of all it only contains 4 ingredients and it’s no-bake so perfect to knock up with kids over…

Salted caramel pretzel bar
Salted caramel pretzel bar
My Mum and I have a mini-tradition, whenever I go and visit her we always go to Coffee #1 and I always get the ‘salted caramel pretzel.’ Recently, while enjoying one, we tried to deconstruct the delicious creation in order to make our own. We decided it was some kind of biscuit base, with chewy salted caramel, chocolate and crunchy pretzel pieces. So I set about creating something similar by…

Homemade pesto
Pesto pasta is one of my all time favourite meals. My brother and I were pretty much bought up on the stuff, with a jar ever-present in our kitchen cupboard. So, when we had some basil left over from a previous recipe it seemed like the perfect opportunity to make some for myself.
