Ok quiz time
What do you get when you cross strawberries, cheesecake and tim tams?
Answer – something utterly delicious that you need to make ASAP (if this was not your answer I’m not sure I can help you).
Today’s offering of a strawberry tim tam cheesecake is not only delicious but utterly easy.
for the base you need 2 ingredients
for the filling just these ingredients
and we are pretty much doing a bit of food processor magic and letting it set. Easy right
Strawberry and Tim Tam Cheesecake
250g Tim Tams (a packet its only 200g so you’ll need 2 packets which will dangerously leave you with most of a packet left over)
2 tbls melted butter
250g Cream Cheese at room temp
1 Punnet of strawberries (you could use raspberries etc although if I were using raspberries I’m inclined to think you’d use the white choc tim tams)
1/3 Cup sugar
300ml thickened cream
1 1/2 tbls of Gelatine
3 tbls of hot water
In a food processor blend biscuits until fine crumbs are formed add butter and process until mixture kinda forms a ball. Press into a springform tin ( I used a 23cm one but I think a slightly smaller one would be better as you’d get a slightly thicker base and higher filling), refrigerate.
Process strawberries and sugar till well mixed, adding cream cheese and blend till smooth.
Sprinkle gelatine over hot water and whisk with a fork until dissolved. Process into the mixture in small quantities (if you add it all in at once into mixture it won’t disperse as well and you’ll get gelatinous chunks, this I found out form experience)
Add thickened cream and process until combined.
Pour over base and refrigerate until set.
Eat with others as dangerously good if alone you’d probably eat more than respectable
