Ingredients

Chocolate Digestives: Chocolate digestives are a type of sweet biscuit made with a combination of wheat flour, sugar, vegetable oil, cocoa powder, and chocolate coating. They have a rich and sweet chocolate flavor, which pairs perfectly with the other ingredients in this recipe.

Butter: Butter is a dairy product made from churning fresh cream or milk. It has a rich and creamy flavor that adds moisture and richness to the base of the cheesecake. It also helps hold the biscuit base together.

Cream Cheese: Cream cheese is a soft, mild-tasting cheese made from a mixture of milk and cream. It has a smooth and creamy texture that is perfect for creating a luscious and velvety cheesecake filling.

Double Cream: Double cream is a rich and indulgent type of cream with a high fat content. It adds a luxurious mouthfeel to the cheesecake filling and helps it set properly once it is chilled.

Mint Aero Chocolate: Mint Aero chocolate is a type of chocolate bar filled with bubbles of mint-flavored aerated chocolate. It adds a refreshing minty flavor and a satisfying crunch to the cheesecake filling.

Icing Sugar: Icing sugar, also known as powdered sugar, is a finely ground sugar that is commonly used in baking and confectionery. It helps sweeten the cheesecake filling and creates a smooth and creamy texture.

Peppermint Extract: Peppermint extract is a concentrated flavoring made from peppermint leaves. It adds a strong and fresh mint flavor to the cheesecake filling, giving it a cool and refreshing taste.

Green Food Colouring: Green food coloring is a food-grade coloring agent used to add a vibrant green hue to the cheesecake filling. It helps create a visually appealing dessert that is reminiscent of mint chocolate.

Vanilla Extract: Vanilla extract is a flavoring made from vanilla beans soaked in alcohol. It enhances the overall flavor profile of the cheesecake filling and adds a subtle hint of warmth and sweetness.

Mint Aero Balls: Mint Aero balls are small spherical candies made of mint-flavored aerated chocolate. They are used as a garnish for the cheesecake, adding a delightful crunch and extra burst of minty flavor.
