Ingredients

Chocolate Biscuit Base

  • 200 g Chocolate Bourbon biscuits
  • 100 g unsalted butter

Vanilla Cream Cheese Layer

  • 125 g reduced fat cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 50 g icing sugar
  • 150 ml reduced fat double cream

Strawberry Mouse Layer

  • 500 g strawberries
  • 100 g Icing Sugar
  • 200 ml low fat yogurt
  • 100 ml skimmed milk
  • 1 sachet of gelatine which will set 570ml of liquid

Instructions

Chocolate Biscuit Base

  • Grease a round loose bottom 20cm greased spring-form cake tin, and place a piece of greaseproof paper at the bottom.
  • Crush the biscuits by placing them all in a bag and bashing them up to a breadcrumb consistency using a rolling pin, or use a food processor.
  • Gently melt the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat and stir in the crushed biscuits, ensuring they absorb all of the melted butter.
  • Empty the biscuit butter mixture into the cake tin, and press down with the back of a spoon ensuring all the base is covered evenly with the mixture. Then pop into the fridge for at least one hour.

Vanilla Cream Cheese Layer

  • Mix the cream cheese, vanilla extract and icing sugar together by hand.
  • Using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment or a hand help whisk beat the cream until it forms stiff peaks.
  • Gradually fold the whisked cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  • Pour the vanilla cream cheese layer on top of the biscuit base and pop back in the fridge for at least 4 hours, but best left overnight.

Strawberry Mouse Layer

  • Cut off the tops and chop up 150g of the strawberries and place them in a blender, blitz until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl mix the yogurt, milk and remaining icing sugar together. Then add the blitzed strawberries and hand whisk well for about 5 minutes until light and airy.
  • Sprinkle the gelatine onto 120ml hot (not boiling) water and whisk until dissolved.
  • Add the dissolved gelatine into the other ingredients and whisk again until combined.
  • Spoon the mouse on top of the cheesecake and pop back into the fridge to set for at least 4 hours, but best left overnight.
  • Once the mousse layer has set, completely carefully remove the cheesecake from the tin and slide the piece of greaseproof paper out.
  • Cut the strawberries in half and decorate the top with them.
  • Slice up the cheesecake and serve immediately.
