Ingredients
- 2 packets Super Wine biscuits
- 150g melted butter
-
1 packet Berry Poppins Cheesecake Mix
- 500ml whipped cream
- 500g cream cheese
- 250g Whittakers White
- Chocolate
- Fresh berries, to garnish
Orange curd
-
1 cup of caster sugar
- 4 oranges for zest
- 1 cup fresh orange juice (the
- more sour / pulply the better!)
- 3 whole eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 125g butter, melted
Directions
- Line a 9-inch cake tin with baking paper.
Combine 2 crushed packets of Super Wine biscuits with melted butter and press into the tin. Refrigerate.
Dissolve the Berry Poppins packet in 1 cup of hot water. If the sugar doesn’t dissolve after 5 minutes, microwave in 10-second bursts until it does.
Whip the cream to stiff peaks and set aside.
Whisk the cream cheese until smooth, then mix in the melted white chocolate.
Slowly whisk in the Berry Poppins mix, ¼ cup at a time. If it becomes runny, chill for 5 minutes, then re-whip.
Gently fold thru the whipped cream with a spatula. Be careful not to over mix.
Pour onto the base and chill for 4 hours or overnight.
Cheat Orange Curd
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs.
Next, whisk in the whole eggs, egg yolk, orange juice, and zest.
Pour in the slightly cooled melted butter and whisk to combine.
Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and repeat until thickened (4–6 minutes).
Cool in the fridge—the curd will thicken further as it sets.
