Ingredients
Base:
- 1 packet of ginger biscuits (or vanilla biscuits & add 2tsp ground ginger)
- 150g melted butter
Filling:
- 250g cream cheese

- 2 tsp gelatine

No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake
Method
Make base:
- Blitz biscuits in a food processor until crumbs, add melted butter and continue until well combined.
- Press into greased cheesecake tin, this can now be put in the fridge to set while you prepare the filling.
- I prefer to cook the base as it gives it a more crunchy texture and holds its crispness longer, it only needs approx.10 mins at 180 deg C.
Filling:
- Beat cream cheese until smooth, slowly add in condensed milk while keep beating.
- Add in pumpkin & spices and beat altogether on high speed until smooth.
- Add gelatine to water and stir, heat gently over hot water until fully dissolved (or this can be done in the microwave for 20 secs).
- Add to filling and mix well.
- Fold in whipped cream, pour over prepared base and chill for at least 3-4 hours or overnight.
