cheers!!

I made this yesterday, and just tried a piece after lunch , it was fab-u-lous! Thanks

I don't know if my tin was too small, but I had enough topping for 2 cheesecakes, so next time would only use half the topping ingredients.

too small a tin then AbbaFan as its normally fine here

I do sometimes increase the amount of biscuit in the base but thats just sheer glutony!!!

.

Have you got any more recipes you want to share Dizzy? I always look forward to trying them out.

lol thank you micku5 - I have, funny you should mention it, a new book from which I shall be trying a few this week and shall hopefully post one if any turn out well

Dixie I have been meaning to come back to this thread. I discovered your recipe a few months ago and I have made it about 5 times for different people and it has always gone down soooo well.

So, thanks.

dizzy,

late to this....will it serve 6 adults? I should think so in a 23cm tin, but just wanted to check.

thanks in advance.

depends on if you want to share it with 5 others will serve 6 easily

369 thats lovely thank you

Oh dizzy it was a truimph, what a great recipe. thanks so much.

Bump.

I use this recipe a lot and thought others might like to try.

I've promised to make cheesecake with my niece this evening so dug out this thread for the nth time...

IControlSandwich - tis my most requested recipe so don't be telling them all how easy it is

What do i line the tin with - sorry

brokkenHarted greaseproof paper - makes it easier to get the cheesecake out without getting all crumbly.

dizzydixies just wanted to say what a fab recipe this is. So easy and yet impressive!
My normal cheesecake is a lemon and ginger one which is also easy and delicious but nice to have another one to add to my repetoire!
Thanks

Thank you smac I am making it tonight.

How long does it last and if you chop it into diff slices can you freeze them?

Thank you in advance.

How long does it last? It doesn't. You have to eat it Straight Away. And if you can resist there's summat wrong with you.

I made it with my niece who was very impressed and my db and SIL demanded the recipe on trying it.

well it is only me eating it so it would be great if i could freeze some. or save it for the following day.

How about trying half quantities then melted chocolate in a smaller tin. I made it in a 20cm and there was spare topping and we've had FIL staying so it's done 3 of us 3 nights and that was generous portions so if you make the 23cm one then I'd guess it would be 12 portions easily. Even for a gussler like myself that's a lot of cheesecake in one sitting!
It has kept fine in the fridge for 3 days and hasn't taken on any nasty fridge flavours.
You could always try freezing it and see what happens and report back to us!

Will do smac!

have just written that recipe out, thank you! will make this as a treat at the weekend. sounds very tasty!

i have FINALLY made this - eating it tonight with DB and Dsis - cant wait!!!

Sublime.

Thanks!
