  • Put the mixture into the fridge to set
  • Mix the soft cheese then add the icing sugar and mix agian
  • Add the lemon juice and mix again
  • Whip the cream in till softly stiff (it should look like the same consistency of the soft cheese)
  • Mix in the cream into the cream cheese mixture
  • Spoon the mixture onto the biscuit base and push out to the edges
  • Put the cheese cake back into the fridge and chill for at least 3 hours (but for best results chill over night)

  • If you can't find any digestive biscuits or just fancy a different base there are other alternitves like, hobnobs, Ginger nut biscuits, gram crackers, Crushed shortbread or any oaty biscuits and for something a little bit more different use crushed Oreos (dark or white)
