Ingredients

For the raspberry coulis layer:

  • 200 grams Raspberries fresh or frozen
  • 50 grams Caster sugar
  • 1 Lemon juice only
  • 2 teaspoons Cornflour

For the vanilla cheesecake layer:

  • 600 grams Full-fat Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese
  • 150 grams Icing sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 300 millilitres Double cream

For the graveyard biscuit soil:

  • 90 grams Oreo biscuits

Instructions

Start by making the raspberry coulis

  • In a saucepan, combine the raspberries, caster sugar, lemon juice and cornflour.
    200 grams Raspberries, 50 grams Caster sugar, 1 Lemon, 2 teaspoons Cornflour
  • Cook on medium heat for 5-10 minutes until the raspberries have softened (squish them with a fork) and the coulis has thickened up. To remove the seeds, strain the raspberry coulis through a sieve into a bowl and place in the fridge to cool.

Now make the vanilla cheesecake

  • In a large bowl, add the cream cheese, icing sugar and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer to whisk the ingredients together until smooth and combined.

  • Pour in the double cream and continue whisking on medium-high speed for 4-5 minutes until the cheesecake mixture is thick and holds its shape.

Layer the cheesecake

  • Spoon the vanilla cheesecake into the base of a serving dish and spread it evenly into a layer.
  • Pour the raspberry coulis on top and use the back of a spoon to spread it out evenly. Place in the fridge.

Make the graveyard biscuit soil

  • Bash the biscuits into fine crumbs using a rolling pin.

  • Take the cheesecake out of the fridge and cover the surface with the biscuit crumbs.
  • Decorate with your graveyard decorations and place back in the fridge until you're ready to serve the cheesecake. The longer the cheesecake sets for the fluffier it will be.
  • Serve with spoons and bowls for sharing, then dig in and enjoy!
