A delicious white chocolate Baileys Malteser Cheesecake that is completely no-bake! Chocolate… Baileys… Maltesers = the perfect boozy dessert!
Hands up if you’re a cheesecake loving gal (or guy!!)?? Me??? I’m madly waving both hands right now. I am a MASSIVE, MASSIVE cheesecake fan. It’s by far my favourite dessert/treat… and if there’s a cheesecake sitting in the fridge, there’s a fair chance I’ll be hiding in the door eating it with a spoon.
You might remember a while ago I shared a Baileys Chocolate Cheesecake made with Toblerone chocolate. Yummmmmm!!! And seriously it was YUM!! But this time I wanted to make something a little different – but still with that delish Baileys taste.
Which brings me to this gorgeous thing! Say hello to the most decadently fabulous white chocolate Baileys Malteser Cheesecake. HOLY MOLY!! And not only is there a bazillion Maltesers decorating the top, there’s also Maltesers hiding INSIDE!!
And the best thing of all? This Baileys Malteser Cheesecake is completely no-bake, which means you can whip it up, pop it in the fridge and forget all about it… until it’s time to eat it (of course!).
So there it is… quite possibly the worlds best combination of foods all in one super easy cheesecake:
- Maltesers – check!
- White chocolate – check!
- Baileys – double check!!!
And all these things together equal the perfect adults-only dessert!
Well that’s it from me today. I’m off to sit in my cheesecake-induced-coma (and by sit, I obviously mean do 50 loads of washing, vacuum the floor, chase after a toddler and pick up a million pieces of Lego). xx

What are maltesers? What are the conversion measurements in ounces, cups, etc?
Hi Tina, Maltesers are called Whoppers in the US (or they’re very similar at least!!)
Hi, couldnthis cheesecake be frozen for a short period of time?
Thanks!
Anne
Hi Anne, lots of people do freeze their cheesecakes. Personally, I’m not a fan as I don’t think the texture stays as perfect. But if you need to, then do!
Just done this one for my work colleagues and they loved it so thanks for putting this recipe out their. It was also my first attempt at making anything full stop. Do you have any other recipes available doing maybe a mint chocolate cheesecake or one perhaps involving crunchie bars or wisper bars?
Hi Adam, that’s fantastic – thank you for the lovely feedback. You might like to check these ones out: https://bakeplaysmile.com/best-cheesecake-recipes/
Will do, thanks.
I’m looking to make this again but with twice the base, just double up the butter?
Hi Adam, maybe not quite double the butter – try 1/2-3/4 and see what it feels like. xx
What is the concession of us measurements? I want to make this but am not familiar with these!
Can this be made without Baileys? Is there anything that needs to be substituted for the loss of liquid? Thanks
Hi Ashleigh, you can just leave it out. xx
Hi Lucy,
Are you meant to melt the maltesers at same time as you melt the white chocolate? I folded them in whole as per instructions, was that correct procedure?
Yep you’re exactly right Dennis! You simply fold them through. xx
In the recipe for toblerone bailys cheesecake, for 90 grams of liquor you put the same amount of gelatin as in this recipe for 150 grams of liquor, is not it necessary to increase the amount of gelatin in this recipe? Thank you
Hi there, as it’s only 60 grams difference – 3 tsp will set both amounts fine. xx
Fantastic recipes
Thank you for this recipe. I’m no chef but I made this for a dessert auction and it looked amazing. Had lots left over so put 2 more small ones in the freezer (without the Maltesers on top) – came out amazing several months later. Everyone loved it and managed to stick the maltesers on top once it had defrosted and all the maltesers inside were still perfect and crisp.
Fantastic!!!! I’m so happy you enjoyed it! xx
