RECIPES NOTES & TIPS

INGREDIENTS:

Oreos – there’s no need to remove the cream filling from the cookies. It adds flavour and helps to hold the base together. I recommend using regular Oreos rather than double-stuffed. Or you could swap Oreo's for any plain, sweet chocolate biscuit such as Arnott’s Chocolate Ripple.
Cream cheese – I recommend using regular full-fat cream cheese (the block type, not spreadable cream cheese) for the best flavour and consistency. Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature first (leave it out for at least 30 minutes before mixing) to ensure the cheesecake filling has a smooth consistency. Cold cream cheese may cause lumps in the mix.

MORE RECIPE TIPS:

Serve chilled - because this cheesecake slice is made without any gelatine (and is completely no bake), it stays lovely and soft when chilled and is best served straight from the fridge.
Texture - once refrigerated for at least 4 hours, the cheesecake filling should feel firmer to touch (although this version will stay softer like thick chocolate mousse, rather than solid like traditional cheesecake) once refrigerated. For a sturdier cheesecake, refrigerate overnight before slicing and serving.
Storing - this slice will keep in the fridge for 2-3 days, but is best eaten in the first day or two. Please note that the Ferrero Rochers will soften over time in the fridge. The cheesecake does not contain gelatine and therefore will remain quite soft. It should be kept in the fridge prior to serving.
Freezing - as there is a slight change in texture of the cheesecake filling when thawed, this slice is best made and eaten when fresh. However if you want to freeze this slice, you can do this as long as you don’t mind the change in texture. Thaw in the fridge overnight.
