Method

  • step 1

    Crush the biscuits with a rolling pin to fine crumbs, add the melted butter and mix well. Tip the mix into a 20cm lined, loose-bottomed cake tin, smooth with the back of a spoon and put in the fridge for 30 mins.

  • step 2

    Melt 375g of the chocolate in a microwave or glass bowl set over a pan of simmering water, then allow to cool slightly.

  • step 3

    Take out 6 nice-looking strawberries and set aside. Blitz the remaining strawberries in a food processor until smooth, then add them to a bowl with the soft cheese and cream. Beat until really smooth and thick, then stir in the melted white chocolate. Pour on top of the biscuit base and smooth the top. Place in the fridge and chill overnight.

  • step 4

    Halve the reserved strawberries and place on top of the cheesecake. Melt the remaining 25g chocolate and drizzle over the top, then keep chilled until ready to serve.

RECIPE TIPS
FROZEN CHEESECAKE

The texture of this cake is softer, lighter and more moussey than a cheesecake, so make sure it's well set in the fridge before cutting. It can also be frozen and served straight from the freezer as a frozen cheesecake on a hot day.

I made this for my daughter’s 21st, really tasty. Followed the recipe and we had it frozen as it’s a very hot day. Everyone loved it.

question

Could I purée the strawberries, freeze and then thaw, to use in this recipe? Thank you

Hi, thanks for your question. If you wanted to use pre-frozen pureed strawberries that would be fine. Just ensure they are completely defrosted before using. Best wishes, BBC Good Food team.

My first attempt at this dessert was a disaster however after reading the other reviews my second attempt was a complete success. You need to whip the cream until the soft peak stage before adding it to the cream cheese mixture and it will set perfectly. Be aware though that this is "moussey" and…

Made this for a family gathering and it went down a treat! I made 6 hours in advance and was just set but still very soft, the leftovers went in the fridge and firmed up the following day to just the right consistency. From the previous comments I was worried about lack of flavour and wasn’t sure…
