Instructions

Step 1

Grease a 20cm x 30cm lamington pan. Line base and sides with baking paper, extending paper 2cm above edges of pan on all sides.

Step 2

Place biscuits in a food processor. Process until finely chopped. Add butter. Process until well combined. Press mixture over base of prepared pan. Refrigerate while preparing topping.

Step 3

Make Chocolate Sauce: Place chocolate and cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH (100%) for 1 minute, stirring halfway, until melted and smooth. Set aside for 20 minutes to cool.

Step 4

Meanwhile, place gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water. Set aside for 5 minutes to soak. Squeeze liquid from gelatine. Place gelatine in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 30 seconds or until melted. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar together until light and fluffy. Gradually add hot gelatine, beating until combined. Add cream. Beat until well combined. Beat in essence and enough food colouring to tint mixture green.

Step 6

Spoon mixture over prepared base. Level top with a spatula. Drizzle chocolate sauce over cheesecake (sauce will be quite thick). Run a butterknife through cheesecake mixture to create a marbled effect. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, until set.

Step 7

Remove slice from fridge 10 minutes before serving. Using a hot knife, cut into pieces. Serve slice topped with Peppermint Crisp and mint leaves.
