Anyone got a good cheesecake mix?

[xltim 10]

i love cheesecake.

 

not the bought ones, only the homemade ones.

i have never found a bakers that sell proper homemade cheesecakes, so i have to make them myself.

Greenes used to do a nice packet one, but they changed it and its rubbish.

have you made them yourself...if so can you share the recipe.

I made this lime and coconut cheesecake with rum cream for a dinner party this weekend. It was gorgeous. Creamy and beautifully rich.

 

8 ginger nut biscuits, crushed

50g (13⁄4oz) unsalted butter, melted

300g (10oz) mascarpone cheese

100g (31⁄2oz) ricotta cheese

1tbsp plain flour

100g (31⁄2oz) golden caster sugar

40g (11⁄2oz) desiccated coconut

grated zest and juice of 3 limes, plus

strands of lime zest, to decorate

2 eggs

1 vanilla pod, scraped

For the rum cream:

200ml (7floz) double cream

1tbsp icing sugar

4tbsp dark rum

 

MethodPreheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4). Mix the biscuits into the melted butter. Place four 10cm (4in) chef’s rings on a baking sheet and press in the biscuit mix.

Put the cheeses, flour, sugar, coconut, lime juice and zest, eggs, and the seeds of the vanilla pod into a bowl and whisk until blended.

Pour onto the biscuit base and bake for 20 minutes, until golden. It should be slightly wobbly in the centre when ready. Leave to cool in the oven.

To make the rum cream, put the cream, icing sugar, and rum into a bowl and whisk to form soft peaks.

Put the cooled cheesecakes onto serving plates and top with quenelles of rum cream and strands of lime.

I make an almost identical one (also from allrecipes.com) and it goes down a treat everytime - I use digestives for the base. Yummy!

Graham crackers are digestives - I'll look up what pecan sandies are (not that I spend too much time baking unhealthy stuff from American cook books or anything. Not at all. )

Had a look at pecan sandies; http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Pecan-Sandies-Cookies Not sure how they would work out, they look like a soft nutty biscuit? Ah well, Nigella has the best cheesecake recipes anyway
