Okay as promised, here is one for my fellow Aussies,(or anyone else I've mailed Tim-Tams to)...
This one is much easier... I promise
Ingredients:
250g plain chocolate biscuits
150g butter, melted
3 teaspoons gelatine
1/4 cup water
2x250g packets cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup caster sugar
1 pkt Tim Tam biscuits, chopped
1x 300ml tub thickened cream, whipped
1x Cadbury Flake chocolate bar
Method:
1. Process biscuits until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add butter; process until just combined. Press biscuit mixture evenly over base and side of 20cm springform tin, cover; refigerate about 30 minutes or until firm.
2. Sprinkle gelatine over water in a heatproof jug; microwave on high 30 seconds or until dissolved, allow to cool slightly.
3. Beat cream cheese and caster sugar in a medium bowl with electric mixer until smooth. Add chopped Tim-Tam's to cheese mixture and combine well. Stir slightly warm gelatine mixture into cheese mixture; fold in cream.
4. Pour mixture into prepared tin and garnish with crumbled flake chocolate. Refigerate about 3 hours or until set.
** Katie's tips -- I have only tried this with original flavoured Tim-Tam's, but if anyone want's to give it a go with another flavour and let me know how it goes, I'd love to know...I'm thinking blackforest? Remember though, the flavoured packs, usually have less biscuits in them, therefore you may need more than one packet for the recipe
Also, same tips I gave for Mars-Bar cheesecake also apply here... line the tin with greaseproof paper... trust me it's sooo much easier, and whack it in the freezer to speed up the setting process. **
ENJOY!!
