Salted caramel and popcorn cheesecake

Serves 10-12
Cook time: 30 minutes
Prep time: 10 minutes

Base

  • 250g ginger nut biscuits, blitzed to crumbs 
  • 90g butter, melted

Cheesecake

  • 3 x 180g cartons of Philadelphia full-fat cream cheese 
  • 200ml whipping cream 
  • 5 tbsp caster sugar 
  • Seeds of 1 vanilla pod or 2 tsp of vanilla extract

Salted caramel

  • 300g tin of caramel spread 
  • ½ tsp sea salt flakes

To serve

  • 30g salted caramel popcorn 
  • 30g of toasted pecan nuts

Method

  1. Line the bottom and sides of a 23cm springform tin with parchment paper. 
  2. Mix the biscuit crumbs and butter together well, then tip them into the bottom of the lined tin and up the sides, using the back of a wooden spoon or an angled palette knife to push the base down hard and compactly. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes or so to firm up. 
  3. To make the cheesecake mixture, put the cream cheese into a bowl with the cream, caster sugar and the vanilla and beat until smooth with an electric hand-held mixer. 
  4. To make the salted caramel, beat the salt into the caramel until smooth. Remove the tin from the fridge and spread two-thirds of the caramel on to the base. 
  5. Add the cheesecake mixture and spread on top, smoothing it off nicely with an angled palette knife or the back of a spoon. Tap the tin on the work surface a little to make sure the mixture sinks down on to the base, leaving no gaps. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight to set. 
  6. Once set, remove from the fridge and scatter the popcorn and pecan nuts on top, then drizzle over the rest of the salted caramel to serve.
