Ingredients

  • 85 shortbread cookies 
  • 140 cheese soft
  • 50 ml double cream 
  • tbsp sugar 
  • tbsp honey 
  • 125 raspberries 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • knife
  • whisk
  • blow torch
  • rolling pin

Directions

  1. Sit 2 x 9cm metal rings on 2 small serving plates. Crush the biscuits in a bag with a rolling pin, then divide between the rings, pressing down to form the base.
  2. Put the soft cheese in a bowl, then whisk together with the double cream, sugar and 2 tbsp honey until soft peaks form. Spoon the mixture into the rings, then spread the top flat. You can chill the cheesecakes now until ready to serve.
  3. Crush a third of the raspberries with 1 tsp honey, then gently fold in the rest. Using a blowtorch, warm around the edge of the ring and lift off or use a knife to run around the inside of the ring, and lift off. Spoon over the raspberries and serve.
