About

Lots of you loved my Crouching Tiger, Hidden Zebra cake, so I thought I would apply the same technique to this cheesecake. You can use two ice-cream scoops to form the striped effect, or I find it easier to pipe the different mixtures.

Ingredients

14 digestive biscuits
100 g unsalted butter, melted

Method

Preheat the oven to 140°C (fan 120°C/275°F/gas 1) and line the base of the tin with baking parchment. Blitz the biscuits in a food processor to fine crumbs, and tip them into a bowl and add the butter. Stir together until well blended and tip into the base of the tin. Us
