Crust
- 2 sleeves of Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 6 Tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted
- Pinch of salt
Filling
- 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 blocks cream cheese (room temperature)

- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Juice of 1 lemon and rind
Garnish
- 1 punnet of blackberries

Method
- Place biscoff biscuits into a blender. Blitz until it’s a fine crumb. Add the melted butter and blitz again. Should feel slightly wet and stick together. Transfer to a lined and greased cake tin that has a removable base and side clip. Using the back of a flat surface, press crumb into the tin. Place in the fridge for an hour.
- Next make the filling. In a bowl, whisk the cream until fluffy. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk the cream cheese, sour cream, icing sugar, vanilla, lemon juice and rind until fluffy. Add the whipped cream in and whisk until combined.
- Spoon mixture on top of the crumb in the cake tin. Spread evenly and place back into the fridge for a minimum of 3 hours.
- Remove cheesecake from fridge, carefully run a hot sharp knife around the edges. Open side clip and removes sides and base of tin.
- Peel the lemon rind using a peeler, then thinly slice into tiny slithers.
- Garnish top of cake with blackberries, lemon rind slithers, mind leaves and grated lime zest.
