EASY CARAMEL CHEESECAKE


,

Another recipe that I made for the guests at my eldest birthday party and many of you have been asking for it. Again, nothing you should make if you are not OK with some sugar in your life (I am not a strict against sugar, I am strictly against useless ingredients, etc). But this made many people happy I must say, so here it goes!

INGREDIENTS

  • 150 g butter, to melt
  • 300 g Olive oil digestive biscuits

For the filling:

  • 400 g cream cheese (I do not buy Philadelphia because I hate the additives, but a local, fresh clean cream cheese)
  • 3 dl heavy cream (for whipping)
  • 55 g confectionary sugar (such are things, but this I would not substitute with anything)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 150 g dulce de leche (bought, or if you want to make yours, here I have a recipe that you will need to take further because the recipe is for condensed milk and to get to caramelised milk you will need to cook the condensed milk until it turns brown and gets caramelised via the Maillard reaction)

For the garnish:

  • 150 g dulce de leche, or less if you dont want it so sweet
  • 2 dl heavy cream for whipping
  • your favourite things to top with, fruit or dried fruit as sprinkles

DIRECTIONS

  1. Take a 22 cm diameter round baking form and wrap the bottom in baking paper. Melt the butter and mix it in the digestive biscuits that you crumb as little as you can. Pour this mixture on the bottom of your baking form pressing well with a spatula or the bottom of a glass. When nicely arranged and well pressed, leave this cake bottom in the fridge.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk together the ingredients for the filling: all the ingredients in a bowl, mix until nice smooth and fluffy. Add this mix over the cake bottom and place again in the fridge for at least 3 hours.
  3. When you take out the cake, spread the caramelised milk over the top, whisk the whipping cream and pipe it out nicely around the edges of the cake and top with your favourite dried fruits, bits of caramel, cacao nibs, sprinkles or whatever your soul desires.
