Kit Kat Cheesecake
 
Ingredients:

750gm Cream Cheese (Phillidelphia Cheese)
2 tbsp castor sugar
8 Chunky Kit Kats
250ml Thickened Full Cream
I sachet gelatine (10gm )
Juice of 1 sm lemon
1 tbsp chocolate sauce (good quality, thick and rich)

Method:

1. Bash the crap outta the kit kats while they're still in their packets. (a rolling pin works nicely for this)
2. pour the contents of 4 kit kats into a microwave bowl and melt (about 30 seconds)
3. smooth melted kit kats over the base of a 12 inch springform pan. (do not refridgerate)
4. put softened cream cheese in large bowl and whip till smooth
5. Add sugar and whip until disolved
6. pour in lemon juice. whip
7. Add chocolate sauce. (you can be more generous with this if you like, but it's going to be pretty rich anyway)
8. Beat mixture until smooth
9. Add gelatine which has been dissolved a small amount of boiling water. Beat.
10. pour in remaining 4 kit kats, mix.
11. Pour mixture into pan over the top of the melted kitkats. The mixture will meld with the melted kit kats on the bottom.
12. Refridgerate till set. Approx 2 hours.

There you have it. Kit Kat Cheesecake. It's so easy even a kid could do it.

Be careful not to make yourself sick though. It is incredibly rich. It is good served with a good quality vanilla gelati.

Enjoy!

well don't forget to make it!

Oh, and I forgot to say, if your springform pan isn't really non stick, you probably need to put some baking paper on the bottom or it'll....well, stick. ;)

Gotta love a recipe that starts like that. Seriously sounds really good

Just to be sure, each of these eight packages is the kind that comes with four little sticks, right?

I assume she means one of these:

Ohhhh... I don't think we have those. How many ounces (or grams, whatever, you damn metric fiends) is one bar?

you could substitute the chunky's for the packs with 4 sticks in them. They'd probably be about the same. I'd be inclined to just roll the rolling pin over them while applying pressure though because they're not quite as ummm...sturdy as the chunky ones. ;) I'd probably get a couple of extras also because the chocolate content is not as high in the fingers which means you might have trouble with the base. Either that or just melt a bit of plain milk chocolate along with the ones you melt for the base.

You most certainly do. In the States they don't have the "chunky" wording on them, but I can't remember what they DO say. If you go into any convenience store they are sure to have them. They are about the size and weight of a regular size Snickers, maybe a bit lighter (50g or so?).

It's called the Kit Kat Big Kat.

Has anyone made their cheesecake yet?

Perry Winkle 11-10-2007 07:42 PM

I haven't made it yet. I'm dying to though. Since I only need a spring-form pan for dessert, the money for it needs to come from my fun money, but sadly, that money has been used for other sorts of fun the last couple of weeks.
