Ingredients:
- 250g (9oz) Twix bars, divided
- 200g (7oz) digestive biscuits
- 100g (3.5oz) butter, melted
- 500g (17.5oz) cream cheese, room temperature
- 100g (3.5oz) powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 300ml (1 1/4 cups) heavy cream
- 1 tbsp gelatin powder
- 2 tbsp water
- 100g (3.5oz) milk chocolate, melted
Directions:
- Crust Preparation: Begin by crushing the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs. Mix the crumbs with melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
- Gelatin Preparation: In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
- Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Whipped Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gelatin Addition: Microwave the bloomed gelatin for 10-15 seconds until melted. Allow it to cool slightly, then fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
- Twix Incorporation: Roughly chop half of the Twix bars and fold them into the cheesecake mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Assembly: Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and use a spatula to smooth the top. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Chocolate Drizzle: Once the cheesecake has set, drizzle the melted milk chocolate over the top, adding a luxurious touch to your creation.
- Twix Decoration: Decorate the cheesecake with the remaining Twix bars, chopped into smaller pieces, for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal.
- Serving: When you’re ready to indulge, slice the cheesecake and serve it chilled. Each bite promises a harmonious blend of creamy cheesecake, crunchy biscuit crust, and the unmistakable taste of Twix bars.
