Instructions

Form the Biscuit Base
1

a) Melt the butter (see pantry for amount) in a medium saucepan on medium-low heat. When melted, remove from the heat.

b) Add the speculoos biscuit crumbs to the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are completely coated.

c) Spoon the mixture into a lined 20cm cake tin and pat the crumbs down with the back of a spoon to make the base.

d) Pop into the fridge to firm up while you make the cheesecake filling.

Prep the Cheesecake Mixture
2

a) Zest and juice the limes. Pick the mint leaves from their stalks, keeping the leaves whole (discard the stalks).

b) In a medium bowl, combine two thirds of the ricotta cheese with three quarters of the mint leaves, all the lime juice and half the lime zest. With a hand blender, blend until the mixture is smooth and pale green, 1-2 mins.

c) In a small saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips and the remaining ricotta cheese. Stir on medium heat until the chocolate has melted, 1-2 mins.

d) Add the white chocolate mixture to the mint green mixture in the bowl and stir to combine.

Chill and Serve
3

a) Pour the cheesecake mixture on top of the biscuit base and set in your fridge for 2-3 hours or ideally overnight.

b) Once the cheesecake has set, carefully remove it from its tin and transfer it to a serving platter.

c) Arrange the remaining mint leaves on top of the cheesecake in a circle.

d) Sprinkle over some of the remaining lime zest to finish.

Enjoy!
