Baileys and chocolate cheesecake

Obviously, there needs to be a little caveat here. The clue is in the name. Baileys and Chocolate Cheesecake does have Baileys in it and so a little tiny bit of alcohol. Probably not suitable for the little ones. Mind you, you can make the exact same recipe, just without any chocolate liquor. Or even better, make two! One with and one without.

As always the printable recipe is at the bottom of this post but this is very easy to make. Just read on and find yourself in heaven in less than an hour…



1. Gather the ingredients together

There are only 7 ingredients in this beauty and very limited preparation. 10 digestive biscuits, 100 grams butter, 600 grams cream cheese, 100 grams icing sugar, 300 ml of double cream, 100 grams of finely grated chocolate, and that all important shot of Baileys Irish Cream.

Gather the ingredients together



2. The biscuit base

First of all, take the digestive biscuits, I use McVities but any brand will do, and crush them to the texture of crumbs. You can do this in a food processor but if you do not have one just place the biscuits in a freezer bag.

Place the biscuits into a freezer bag

Grab a kitchen mallet or a rolling pin and then bash the biscuits until you get a fine crumb. This is actually really therapeutic!

Bash the biscuits to a crumb



Next, melt the butter under low heat and then add the crushed biscuit crumb.

Add the crushed biscuits

Take this off the heat and mix the biscuit and butter together until the biscuit has absorbed all of the melted butter.

Stir the butter and biscuit crumb together

Finally, take a cheesecake tin and lay the biscuit butter mix in the bottom and cover the base. Then pat down with the base of a spoon and leave in the fridge to cool for one hour.

Flatten the crumb



3. Make the Baileys and chocolate cheesecake filling

Now for the sweet stuff… Take the cream and whip it until it just starts to stiffen up. Be careful not to over whip. Then set aside.

Whisk the cream until it starts to thicken

Now take the cream cheese and whisk until it loosens up a little. Now add the Baileys (or not depending on the age of your guests) and mix in.

Add the Baileys



Now add the icing sugar and the whipped cream and mix in.

Mix together

Now grate the chocolate on the finest grate size so it looks something like this:

Finely grated chocolate



Add the chocolate to the cream cheese mixture.

Add the grated chocolate

Now stir the grated chocolate into the cheesecake mix. Make sure you get right to the bottom of the bowl so that the chocolate is mixed in with all the cream and cheese.

Mix together


4. Form the cheesecake

By now the biscuit base should have cooled and set so remove this from the fridge. Now spoon the cheesecake mix on top of the base and spread around evenly making sure you force the mix to the sides of the tin. Finally, return to the fridge for around 2 hours to set.

Spoon the cheesecake mix onto the base and smooth over

And that’s it. Once the cheesecake has set it’s ready to serve. Gently remove the outer cheesecake tin and enjoy. This is really a great dessert. Yum!
