Ingredients

• 150g white chocolate
• 300ml cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon gelatine + 2 tablespoons hot water
• 1 packet Arnott's Scotch Finger Biscuits/Arrowroot Biscuits
• 100g butter, melted
• 250g cream cheese
• 80g icing sugar
• 1 packet M&M’s speckled eggs or Cadbury Mini eggs (roughly chopped)
• Optional: extra packet of speckled eggs to stir through the mixture

Instructions

1. Mix the gelatine and hot water together in a small bowl and allow to bloom. Stir until dissolved.
2. To make the ganache: Pour 50ml of the cream into a small bowl and heat in the microwave for 20 seconds. Place the chocolate melts into a bowl and pour the hot cream over the top. Allow the cream to melt the chocolate for 5 minutes. Then stir to combine. Stir in the vanilla and gelatine.
3. In a food processor, blitz the biscuits to form crumbs. Add the melted butter and blitz to combine. Set aside.
4. Using an electric beater or stand mixer, whip the cream cheese and icing sugar together until creamy. Set aside.
5. Pour the chocolate ganache into the cream cheese mixture and mix until well combined.
6. In a clean bowl, whip the remaining cream until stiff peaks form.
7. Scoop ⅓ of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture and fold through. Repeat until all the cream is added to the cream cheese mixture. Now it is time to assemble.
8. Spoon 2-3 spoonfuls of crumbs into the base of your glass. Add 2 heaped dessert spoons of cheesecake mixture. Then repeat with 1 spoon of crumbs and cheesecake mixture. Add chopped Easter eggs on top. Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Notes

• These cheesecake cups can be made into a 20cm large cheesecake.
• If you are making this into a larger cheesecake, you will need to let it set for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• An optional extra: add 1 bag roughly chopped speckled eggs/mini eggs to the cheesecake mixture
