Indulge in this rich and creamy Jaffa Orange Cheesecake, an easy no-bake dessert featuring luscious mascarpone cheese, smooth white chocolate, and a delightful Jaffa cake base. This very tasty recipe, originally from a BBC website, is perfect for a decadent treat.
BASE
1.Combine the jaffa cakes and the digestives
together and stir in the butter.
2. Press the mixture into 10 mousse rings placed on
a tray covered with cling film.
( i could not be arsed with that so i got two 8 inch
flan dishes and that was enough).
CHEESECAKE FILLING
1.Gentley mix the mascarpone and sugar together.
2.Fold in the whipped cream then quickly fold in the
melted white chocolate.
3.Fill each ring or dish and smooth out just under
rim or a little less than that.
4.Chill in the fridge while you make the topping.
TOPPING
1.Heat the sugar and the cream in a pan on a low
heat until the sugar has dissloved.
2.Bring to the boil and simmer for 8 minutes or
until pale yellow in colour.
3.Stir in chocolate and butter until melted then
allow to cool slighty.(Try and use terrys or other
orange chocolate. I tried to cheat by using plain
belgian chocolate and adding orange juice, almost
got it right but it easier to use ready made. Also
when it says cool slighty let it cool for about 7-8
mins otherwise it will cause some of the filling to
mix in with the topping).
4.Top each cheesecake.
5.Leave to set in the fridge for about 2 hours.
NOTES
Decorate with orange segments and/or mint. This stuff keeps for about 3 days as i gave the last piece tp someone after 3 days and they were fine LOL
