Ingredients You'll Need:

This recipe breaks down into two main components: the cheesecake base and the Kinder Bueno topping.

For the Cheesecake Base:

• 200g digestive biscuits (graham crackers)
• 80g unsalted butter, melted
• 2 x 250g packs of cream cheese, softened (full-fat recommended for best texture)
• 150g caster sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 100ml double cream (heavy cream)
• Zest of 1 lemon (optional, for a brighter flavour)

For the Kinder Bueno Topping:

• 10-12 Kinder Bueno bars, roughly chopped (reserve some for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

This recipe is easier than you think! Follow these simple steps for a perfect Kinder Bueno Cheesecake.

1. Prepare the Biscuit Base:

• Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs. You can use a food processor for an even consistency.
• Combine the biscuit crumbs with the melted butter in a bowl, mixing until well combined.
• Press the mixture firmly into the base of a 23cm springform tin. Use the back of a spoon to create an even layer.
• Refrigerate the base while you prepare the filling.

2. Make the Cheesecake Filling:

• In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and caster sugar together until smooth and creamy. An electric mixer makes this process much easier.
• Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Don't overmix.
• Stir in the vanilla extract and lemon zest (if using).
• Gently fold in the double cream until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent air bubbles.

3. Assemble and Bake:

• Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit base and smooth the top with a spatula.
• Place the springform tin into a larger roasting tin. Pour enough boiling water into the larger tin to come halfway up the sides of the springform tin (this creates a water bath, preventing cracking).
• Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the center.
• Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake to cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for another hour.
• Once cooled, remove the cheesecake from the water bath and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to fully set.

4. Add the Kinder Bueno Topping:

• Once the cheesecake is fully set, remove it from the springform tin.
• Sprinkle the chopped Kinder Bueno bars evenly over the top.
• Garnish with reserved Kinder Bueno pieces.

Tips for Success:

• Room temperature ingredients: Ensure your cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature for a smoother, more easily incorporated mixture.
• Water bath: The water bath is crucial for preventing cracks and ensuring even baking.
• Don't overbake: Slightly wobbly in the center is okay; it will set further as it cools.
• Chill thoroughly: Allowing the cheesecake to chill completely is essential for achieving the perfect texture.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve your Kinder Bueno Cheesecake chilled. It's delicious on its own, or you can pair it with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
