Under pressure now...


Look what Sinead (aka The Animal) made.... No details as to what is in it, besides the raspberries & white chocolate, but hopefully she'll share the secret :) Looks seriously yummy! How nice of her to make it on a night she won't see me!!!!
I'm under pressure now to make something fabulous this week & I promise I definately will!
Happy eating Sinead! x

  2. Ingredients (adapted from Rachel Allen's baked blueberry cheesecake-you can substitute the raspberries and white chocolate for a filling of you choice)
    175g (6oz) digestive biscuits
    75g (3oz) butter, melted
    175g (6oz) raspberries, plus extra for decorating
    100g white chocolate broken into pieces
    450g (16oz) cream cheese
    150g (5oz) caster sugar
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    4 eggs, lightly beaten
    To bake:
    24cm (91/2in) diameter spring-form/loose-bottomed tin
    Method
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F), Gas mark 4. Butter the sides and base of the cake tin. Place the biscuits in a food processor and whiz until quite fine. Alternatively, place them in a plastic bag and bash with a rolling pin.

    Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter and press down into the base of the tin so that it is nice and even. Spread the raspberries and broken chocolate over the base and allow to chill in the fridge while you make the topping.

    Beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract and the eggs together in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Pour over the top of the raspberries and chocolate and then bake in the oven for 40 minutes or until it is pale golden and should only wobble very slightly when you gently shake the tin.

    Allow to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge to loosen it and carefully remove the cheesecake from the tin. Transfer to a serving plate. Sprinkle over a few raspberries and white chocolate shavings, if you wish, then dust with icing sugar. Cut into slices to serve. This cheesecake is best eaten when it is at room temperature.
