Cheesecake?  Cheeeeeeeesecake?

 Basic ingredients :

200g butter
100g icing sugar
350g digestives
284ml double cream
600g soft cheese - Philly, stuff like that (or mascarpone)
Vanilla extract or flavouring

Stuff you'll need :
Mixing bowl
Electric or hand whisk
Cake tin - one of those that you can lift the sides off from the base
Baking parchment
Food bag (med to large)
Rolling pin / meat tenderiser / hammer - you choose
Kitchen scales


Base -
Put the digestives in the food bag and bash the hell out them until all broken up into crumbs.
Melt the butter and then add to the crumbs.
Mix the crumbs and melted buter until all crumbs are coated. 
Line the base of the tin with the baking parchment and coat the sides of the tin with a little butter.
Tip the crumb mix into a cake tin and flatten down until all evenly spread out.
Place in the fridge for approx one hour to allow the crumb mix to set
Clean the mixing bowl


Cheesecake middle bit -
Into the mixing bowl add the icing sugar and soft cheese.
Using the whisk, mix together until smooth whilst gradually adding the cream and the vanilla, whisking until all mixed together. Add the vanilla to taste.
Once all mixed together and the crumb base has had an hour to set, pour the cheesecake mixture into the cake tin and spread it out over the crumbs ensuring there are no air bubbles.
Put the cake tin back in the fridge and allow a further hour for the whole cheesecake to set.


Topping -
Can be anything you like.
I made one where I grated a couple of cubes of Cadbury's Dairy Milk into the cheesecake mixture then grated another cube over the top just prior to serving.


Another suggestion is raspberries or strawberries.
Ingredients and stuff needed :
200g of raspberries or strawberries
50g icing sugar
Sieve
Bowl

Squash the fruit through the sieve and into the bowl. This will ensure you only get the juice and no pips or seeds.
Add some of the icing sugar if required - depends on how sharp the tatse of the fruit is.
Then either add into the mixture or pour over the top.
