Recipe for Baileys cheesecake

Ingredients

  • 11g pack powdered gelatine , plus 1 tsp
  • 175g shortcake biscuits , crushed to crumbs
  • 85g butter , melted
  • 250g tub Quark
  • 250g tub mascarpone
  • 150ml Baileys cream liqueur
  • 142ml pot double cream , lightly whipped
  • 2 eggs
  • 140g caster sugar
  • FOR THE COFFEE JELLY
  • 1 heaped tsp powdered gelatine
  • 150ml strong black coffee
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar , to sweeten the coffee

Cooking Directions

Measure 5 tbsp cold water in a small bowl, then sprinkle over the gelatine and leave to soak for 5 mins until spongy. Now stand the bowl of gelatine in a pan of gently simmering water and leave until it turns clear.

Meanwhile, mix the biscuit crumbs and butter really well, then press on the base of a loose-bottomed 20cm cake tin. Chill.

Beat the quark, mascarpone and Baileys together, then stir in the gelatine and fold in the cream.

Whisk the eggs and sugar in a bowl until thick, pale and foamy, then fold into the cheesecake mixture and pour onto the biscuit base. Chill for 3-4 hrs or until set.

For the jelly, sprinkle the gelatine over the coffee, then put the bowl in a pan of gently simmering water until dissolved. Cool the mixture. When cold, carefully spoon the coffee mixture on top of the cheesecake to make a thin layer - don''t pour it on or you will disturb the creamy layer. Chill until set. Will keep in the fridge for 2 days.

To serve the cheesecake, wrap a hot tea towel round the outside of the tin, then gently ease out the cake. Serve in thin slices.
