Ingredients
  

  • 250 g Digestive Biscuits crushed
  • 100 g Unsalted Butter melted
  • 500 g Cream Cheese softened
  • 150 g Icing Sugar
  • 200 ml Double Cream
  • 2 Large Lemons zest and juice
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) / 350°F.
  • In a bowl, combine the crushed digestive biscuits and melted butter. Mix until the biscuits are fully coated.
  • Press the biscuit mixture into the base of a tart tin (around 23 cm in diameter), making sure it is evenly spread and compacted. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  • While the base cools, whisk the cream cheese and icing sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the double cream until soft peaks form.
  • Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and stir until fully combined.
  • Gently fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
  • Once the biscuit base has cooled, pour the cheesecake mixture over it and smooth out the top.
  • Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours or until set.
  • Serve chilled and enjoy!
