A Buttery Biscuit Base, Kinder Chocolate & Kinder Bueno Filling, Whipped Cream, Melted Chocolate, and even more Kinder Bueno! The PERFECT No-Bake Kinder Bueno Cheesecake!

So, I knew this recipe had to happen soon. I have had SO MANY REQUESTS for this I can’t actually count them anymore! I used to refer people to my Ferrero Rocher & Nutella No-Bake Cheesecake, because Ferrero and Kinder are actually quite similar nut wise, and flavour wise, so its easy enough to swap out the Ferrero Rocher, and put in the Kinder Bueno.

HOWEVER, after using the Kids Kinder Chocolate bars you can buy in my Kinder Bueno Cupcakes for the buttercream, I knew melting them down and flavouring a cheesecake mix would work as well! Honestly, it makes it a completely different taste to just regular Milk or Dark Chocolate!!

I went for my usual style of No-Bake Cheesecake as they’re oh so popular still, and they always work for me. A similar style to my No-Bake Terry’s Chocolate Orange Cheesecake, I used a Digestive biscuit base (use any biscuit you like really, but if its a filled biscuit like an Oreo, reduce the butter to 125g) and then topped it with the creamy and delicious filling.

A mix of Full-Fat Cream Cheese, Icing Sugar, Double Cream, and Vanilla is the perfect vanilla cheesecake; but adding in the Melted Kinder Chocolate gives it a light but delicious hint of a flavour of Kinder Chocolate. Folding through the Kinder Bueno was just heavenly.

You can of course use normal Milk Chocolate in the Kinder Chocolates place if you wished, but I love the flavour of the Kinder Chocolate. It does cool quite a bit quicker compared to normal chocolate, so I only waited about a minute before I poured it into my Cream Cheese mixture. You don’t need it to be stone cold (and therefore solid) by any means, but it just can’t be fresh out of the microwave hot!

I made a Video for this recipe on my Youtube channel, and I always have to speed up my videos (Kinda like those Tasty ones you see on Facebook?) as you can only watch sooo much of whisking a mixture. However, you can see the order in which I add the ingredients, and that I use a stand mixer and the whisk attachment.

If you are using a Hand Whisk instead of a stand mixer, try not to whisk it tooooo fast as the surface area in which its whisking is smaller, so it can be more likely to split! Stay patient, and you’ll have a delicious pud! I wouldn’t really recommend whisking by hand, as you arm is going to probably fall off by the end of it, and I don’t think you would be able to get it thick enough!

Yes, the Kinder Bueno in the middle goes ever so slightly soft after its been sat in the cheesecake mix for a while, but it’s not the end of the world. It’s there for flavour, but if you don’t want to use them in the middle then you don’t have to! It’s optional. I really hope you enjoy this recipe! x

Ingredients

Biscuit Base

  • 300 g Digestives
  • 150 g Unsalted Butter/Stork (melted)

Cheesecake Filling

  • 500 g Full Fat Cream Cheese
  • 100 g Icing Sugar
  • 300 ml Double Cream
  • 250 g Kinder Chocolate
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 13 Individual Kinder Bueno Bars (chopped)

Decoration

  • 150 ml Double Cream
  • 2 tbsp Icing Sugar
  • 3 Individual Kinder Bueno Bars (chopped)
  • 50 g Chocolate (melted)
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

To make the Cheesecake Base

  • Melt the butter in the microwave on short bursts on in a small pan over a medium heat – Blitz the biscuits in a food processor to a small crumb, add the melted butter, and pulse a few times until it is combined well. 
  • Tip into a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin and press down firmly – chill in the refrigerator whilst you do the rest!

To make the Cheesecake Filling

  • Melt the Kinder Chocolate in the microwave in short bursts until fully melted – leave to cool slightly whilst doing the rest.
  • With an electric mixer (I used my KitchenAid) Whisk the Cream Cheese, Icing sugar and Vanilla until combined. Pour in the melted Kinder Chocolate and whisk again till smooth.
  • Pour in the liquid double cream and continue to whip the mixture until it is starting to thicken a lot like a Mousse does (I use speed 6/10 on my KitchenAid)! It will hold it self completely when finished whipping – It won’t take too long as the chocolate will harden quickly and cause it to thicken.
  • Chop up the Kinder Bueno Bars and fold through the mixture – If you don't like kinder buenos going soft, don't put them inside the cheesecake as they will soften!
  • Pour the mix on to the biscuit base, smooth over, cover, and chill in the fridge for at least 5-6 hours hours or preferably overnight.

To decorate the Cheesecake

  • Remove the cheesecake from the tin, and decorate by drizzling over some melted chocolate, some whipped up cream (double cream + icing sugar), a piece of Kinder Bueno for each slice, and some chocolate sprinkles!

Video

Notes

  • ** I used 2 x 4 pack of Kinder Buenos for this. Each 4Pack contains 8 individual bars, as there is 2 in each. I used 3 for the topping, and the other 13 for the inside of the cheesecake! I used these Kinder Chocolate Bars for reference, for the filling of the cheesecake!
  • If it looks like your cheesecake isn’t setting, or its a but sloppy, or you’re even not sure.. try it anyway. Try to set the mix anyway! If it still doesn’t set, freeze it and have an Ice Cream Cheesecake!
  • I recommend using a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin in this recipe!
  • always set my cheesecakes in the fridge overnight otherwise they risk being a little runny still and slipping off the biscuit base but if you want to risk it then go for it!
  • This Cheesecake will last covered in the fridge for 3 days!

ENJOY!

      Hello!!

      I’ve been trying to find a ‘Kinder Happy Hippo Hazelnut’ cheesecake recipe but can’t seem to find one anywhere. Please can you suggest how I can alter this recipe and use Kinder Happy Hippo Hazelnut rather than Kinder Bueno Bars?

      Thanks
      Claire



    • Jane's Patisserie on January 24, 2024 at 1:49 pm

      Follow the same recipe, just decorate with hippos!



  2. Chris on January 13, 2022 at 12:34 pm

    Hi, could you use light cream cheese instead of the full fat or would it not work 🤔

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 17, 2022 at 3:58 pm

      Hiya! Sadly not – you need to use full fat to ensure it sets properly! Hope this helps! x

    Made this once before, was amazing very light full of flavour, the only problem I had was how to get it of the base of the spring form tin I did line it but then had the paper stuck to cheesecake bottom any ideas how to remove the paper from bottom of cheese cake thanks xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 24, 2021 at 1:09 pm

      Hiya, Personally I don’t put paper on the bottom of cheesecakes as I find it way too awkward, I just use a thin knife or spatula to get it out of the tin xx



    • Karen on January 1, 2022 at 1:58 pm

      Cover the base of the tin with a piece of grease proof. paper so it overlaps by a couple of inches all round and put the side of the tin on as normal, pull the paper tight from underneath. Think of a sewing frame. Once it is set the cheesecake will just slide off. X

    Hello Jane! I absolutely always love your recipes! I think they are so well thought out.

    I have made a fair few of your cheesecakes now and they are always great and hold shape when I take them out of their spring tin but they are softer than I’d say a normal cheesecake is, it doesn’t go hard despite keeping shape. Does this sound right or am I doing something wrong? Ps they are always left over night!

    Thanks so much, Abbey 🙂

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 24, 2021 at 1:10 pm

      Hey! Aww thank you so much that is very kind! That just sounds like it hasn’t set properly that is all xx



    • Davy T on January 15, 2023 at 6:19 pm

      I flip the base of the spring tin over then the lip is at the bottom and makes the base flat and even
      for the biscuit base to lie on. 👍



  7. Naz on May 6, 2021 at 11:46 am

    Hi Jane, I was thinking about making this cheesecake…was just wondering if the unsalted better is essential or can you use normal butter?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 6, 2021 at 1:16 pm

      Hey! Any butter can be used for the base xx



  8. Sarah on April 21, 2021 at 11:25 pm

    Hi Jane
    I was wondering if I could half the ingredient for the middle cream layer because I don’t like soo much cream In opposed to the biscuit base
    Would that work?
    Thanks

    Hello! I found the recepie Amazing! The only thing which makes me unsure Is the size of the springform! Is It really 20cm the one you used? In my case the amount of the ingredients was clearly too much! if i had used the whole amount of what i prepared After your recepies, It would have dropped out of the springform 😉 Thanks for the information! I and my guests love your recepies!

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 18, 2021 at 8:05 pm

      It depends completely on the sizes of the mini cheesecakes I’m afraid – I have a mini cheesecake chocolate orange recipe you could use as a base but that’s a 12 hole tin x

    • Tracy modaley on February 18, 2022 at 7:09 pm

      Hi, where it says 250g of kinder chocolate in the filling can you use the Morrisons white chocolate hazelnut spread or would that not work?



    • Jane's Patisserie on February 28, 2022 at 4:02 pm

      Hiya! This would work – however it will be slightly softer as it is a softer spread. Hope this helps! x



  18. Claire on January 17, 2021 at 12:59 pm

    Hi Jane. I made this yesterday and its absolutely delicious! Although the texture doesn’t seem to be as thick and fluffy as a standard cheesecake. It has set but its very soft and I think it would probably collapse if it was left out of the fridge for too long! Any idea where I could have gone wrong? Thanks so much!

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 18, 2021 at 11:25 am

      It depends what you mean by ‘standard cheesecake’ as shop bought or restaurant cheesecakes will often be firmer! No-bake cheesecakes you make yourself can have a lighter texture, but it definitely shouldn’t collapse! It may be that the mixture wasn’t whisked enough, as this is usually the case! You can try whipping the cream separate (if you didn’t do that already) and fold that through and see if it helps, or you can use a setting agent such as gelatine to guarantee a good set! x



  19. Emma on December 21, 2020 at 11:08 am

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 3, 2020 at 2:40 pm

      It does work, you just need arm power! I would whip the cream separately x



  23. Chloe on December 2, 2020 at 9:26 am

    Hi Jane, when you say it can be left for 3 days in the fridge; is that 3 days from the day you made it? Or 3 days from the day after you made it?xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 2, 2020 at 12:27 pm

      As long as the fresh ingredients have a good date, I say three days once set x



  24. Charlotte Priestley on November 28, 2020 at 3:37 pm

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 31, 2020 at 10:38 pm

      Because of wafer in the bueno, I wouldn’t recommend melting them personally!



  27. Elsie on September 24, 2020 at 10:53 am

    Hi, when making this cheese cake can you use the reduced fat cheese and double cream?

    Kind Regards

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 24, 2020 at 12:04 pm

      No – as mentioned you need full-fat cream cheese to make sure it sets. x



    • Amber on November 29, 2021 at 6:03 pm

      Hi Jane can I used melted bueno bars in the filling?



    • Jane's Patisserie on November 30, 2021 at 11:23 am

      Hiya! Unfortunately Bueno bars contain wafer – so you can’t melt them! Hope this helps! x



  28. Anita on September 18, 2020 at 8:43 pm

    Hi Jane,

    Can I make the biscuit base by grounding bunch of kinder buenos? Would that work, or would it be a bit too much and would it be stable enough?

    Thank you!

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 18, 2020 at 8:55 pm

      I just personally wouldn’t say it’s worth it – they won’t stay crisp and you would need quite a lot x



  29. A on August 28, 2020 at 1:49 pm

    Hi, I was wondering if I could take this recipe but make individual ones using a removable base Cupcake tray I have (similar if not the same to the one you used in the individual Victoria sponge cake recipe) would this work?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 28, 2020 at 7:21 pm

      Yes – usually I say it makes about 12-14 x



  30. Rose Trott on July 24, 2020 at 7:20 pm

    Hey, love all of your recipes thank you! Do you think I could crush the Buenos into smaller pieces almost chip size and add them in so the soggy is not so intense? Thanks xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 24, 2020 at 8:43 pm

      They will go soft either way, so I would just leave them out if you don’t like softness!



    • Amy on July 28, 2020 at 9:50 pm

      Hi Jane, instead of kinder bueno bits going threw the cheesecake I’m thinking about putting the little kinder bars chopped up in threw in? What you think

    Hey Jane,

    I have made this 3 times and it has been absolutely delicious! However all 3 times the cheese part has been a littl me runny and it doesn’t set properly. I am using an electric whisk and just wondering if I am whisking it too much or too little? The whisk is a cheap one from Argos and only has 1-5 in speed. Just wondering what you think it should be set at and for how long
    Thanks!

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 20, 2020 at 2:11 pm

      The actual whisk shouldn’t have anything to do with it (As all brands vary so much but generally do the same thing) – if the mixture is still smooth but just a bit soft, it means under whisked. You can whip the cream separately, or whip a bit more! x



    • Amo Bhopal on November 23, 2020 at 7:18 pm

      I’ve found this happens when I add too much double cream to the mixture. Instead of 300ml try adding 100ml, this will help it set and no end of being so runny.



  32. Mary on July 4, 2020 at 2:25 pm

    Hi Jane, I am attempting to do this recipe, however I only have a 23cm tin. How would I adapt the recipe to suit this?

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 4, 2020 at 7:16 pm

      Hey! So you can leave it as it is, and it will just be thinner – or you can add on about 1/3 more!

    Hey Jane,
    How could I make this into a white kinder bueno cheesecake? Would I just change the kinder bueno a to white then prehaps the top melted chocolate to white?
    Many thanks x

  34. Lydia on July 2, 2020 at 10:56 am

    Hi, I recently found some white chocolate hazelnut spread which tastes exactly like the inside of a Kinder Bueno – I’m considering using it in this recipe in the same way as Biscoff for the ‘White Chocolate Biscoff Swirl Cheesecake’ (with the individual Bueno bars in place of white chocolate etc) – would that work fine? Thanks 🙂

  35. Mads on July 1, 2020 at 2:06 pm

    Hi Jane, hope your well. I am attempting to do your cheesecake recipe in a 12 hole loose based sandwich tin. For all your recipes the method is quite similar to use a 20cm tin. So I was wondering, do I need to adapt the recipe to fit into the 12 hole loose tin? Or can I leave it as it is. Thank you x

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 1, 2020 at 2:15 pm

      I typically just leave it as it is, but fit it into 12! If you have any leftover mix, put it into glasses or freeze! x



  36. Lauren on June 26, 2020 at 2:29 pm

    Not entirely sure where I went wrong, done everything as stated used a hand whisk but just could not get the mixture to thicken, it didn’t split of curdle jus still rather runny. Any advice?

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 26, 2020 at 2:57 pm

      So there’s a few things – is the hand whisk electric or not? If it’s electric it may be a mix of the hot weather, the chocolate being too hot and melting the other ingredients, and not being whisked! If it’s not electric then its usually just not whipping it enough!

  39. Kyle Robinson on June 19, 2020 at 5:56 pm

    Hi,
    I made this today and as soon as I added the double cream in and started to whisk it looked like it was separating. It can’t be from over whisking as I had literally added it a few seconds before it starting looking like water was escaping from it. It never thickened to a firm consistency.
    I’ve put it in the fridge now anyway but I can’t see that it’ll set. What do you think happened?

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 19, 2020 at 7:47 pm

      Hey! I’ve never seen a cheesecake mix separate like this, how strange! – I’ve only seen them seize or curdle. Seizing can make it look weird (the chocolate solidifies forming chocolatey looking lumps) or it curdles (where it looks the same colour, but lumpy). How were you mixing it? What brands/types of ingredients did you use?



  40. Keeley on June 17, 2020 at 1:37 pm

    Hi, if you recommenced to leave it in the fridge overnight is it three days from that night you recommend or would it still be okay for three days From the morning after it’s set?

    Thankyou

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 17, 2020 at 6:53 pm

  45. Jade Candy on May 28, 2020 at 12:20 am

    Please help!
    I bought all the ingredients listed and my children and I feared up to make this amazing cheesecake. I mixed together the cream cheese (full fat) with the icing sugar, then added the chocolate, when it came to adding the double cream I realised we didn’t have a whisk! I tried my best to whisk with a fork but didn’t have much luck. My mother in law came to the rescue with an electric whisk. After whisking for around 5 mins it eventually started to thicken, but then I started to notice it looked curdled!!
    I decided to throw away the mixture and my kiddies went to bed disappointed.
    Please can you advise where I went wrong?
    Are the ingredients better off cold? I read that they were better room temperature, so I left them out. But it was quite a hot day so maybe they were too warm. I don’t know! I cant help feeling like a failure as this was something my children were looking forward to.
    I’d really appreciate some help!
    Thanks In advance

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 30, 2020 at 4:47 pm

      Hiya – so because the mixture will have been sat for a while, it may have ruined it a bit! You certainly don’t need to whisk for 5 minutes. Also, I would advise the ingredients being cold – especially the cream. The warm cream is much much harder to get thick and will often curdle!

    Can you freeze this cheesecake after it’s set? If so how long will it last in the freezer?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 27, 2020 at 6:34 pm

      Hey! Yes you can – they usually freeze for at least one month, but technically up to three!

  48. Cameron Fraser on May 21, 2020 at 9:10 am

    Thanks so much for the recipe, I have used it loads of times! I made it yesterday but used 50% less fat Philadelphia as that’s all I could get my hands on and it was super runny from the get go. I didn’t think this would make a difference? Should it?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 21, 2020 at 4:07 pm

      Yes it will make a difference… as mentioned, it MUST be full fat. The fat content is what helps it set!

    Beautiful cheesecake, set perfectly and so easy to make. It was a real hit with family and friends. I prefer a bigger base with mine and i managed to make 2 cheesecakes out of this one recipe so that’s even better!

    • Latisha on June 3, 2020 at 2:09 am

      Question, can double cream be substitited for heavy cream? If so would you use the same measurements??



    • Jane's Patisserie on June 3, 2020 at 8:55 am

      It can! However, as it’s a lower fat content it may be better to whip it separately and fold through!

    I’m in love with this recipe! It’s honestly so easy to make. As someone who’s never made a cheesecake (tbh I barely bake/cook) it’s really easy. I even did it with a hand whisk, while fasting also having to use slightly different ingredients. My mum bought me light Philadelphia as i didn’t even realise it was meant to be full fat cream cheese but it still worked out. I only used 200g of plain chocolate instead of 300g and that still worked out (there was no tangy taste like other people have gotten). I made a thicker base (purposely) so overall I winged a lot of the recipe. The recipe was still very rich in flavour and tasted amazing. The filling wasn’t runny at all. If I was able to do it I think other will too! (By the way I ended up getting 15 slices as I put the cheesecake in a long rectangle clear glass dish.) So for others who are wanting to do this go ahead, if I did so many things differently and it still turned out amazing there’s a very low chance of something going wrong. Also use the video as a guide to see what type of consistency you need (it helped me very much as I was doing it with a hand whisk so I knew when to stop and do the next step) thank you for the recipe x

  51. Dani on May 12, 2020 at 4:57 pm

    Hi,
    Would I be able to half the dose to make a smaller cheesecake as it’s just the two of us at home?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 12, 2020 at 5:25 pm

      Yes – half is good for a 6″ tin, or a very thin 8″!

  53. Jess on May 3, 2020 at 4:55 pm

    Hi could you please tell me if it’s better to use mascarpone or phillidelphia cream cheese with this recipe please?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 3, 2020 at 5:35 pm

      Both work the same – mascarpone is naturally sweeter, Philadelphia is classic cheesecake.

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 3, 2020 at 7:25 pm

      Oooh yum! And yes you can – you’ll know you’ve over whipped when it starts to look like over whipped cream. It can go grainy and just not very pleasant!

    Hi Jane,

    I made this tonight but the mixture just tasted of cream cheese 🙁 is there anything I can do in the future to stop the cream cheese from overpowering with a tangy taste ? Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 27, 2020 at 9:43 pm

      Personal taste is difficult, as what you make thing is cheesy I might not. It also depends on the brand you use – mascarpone is sweeter, less ‘tangy’.



  56. Amber on January 22, 2020 at 3:30 pm

    Hi! I made your back to basic vanilla cheesecake I’m not sure if i whipped or over whipped though! Or could of been too hot in the room as the sides were melting whilst i decorated it, I’ve popped it back in the fridge. Do you think it will firm back up? X

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 22, 2020 at 8:34 pm

      It’s probably a little under-whipped and the warmth – it’ll be absolutely fine though I’m sure!

    Hi Jane – I’ve just made your chocolate orange loaf cake and this cheesecake tonight. The cheesecake is in the fridge to set and I plan to decorate tomorrow evening. How would I know if it’s potentially not going to set can I ask? It felt just a little runnier than I expected but still needed a spatula into the cheesecake tin so not completely pourable :/

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 17, 2019 at 12:09 pm

    Thank you

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 9, 2019 at 9:11 pm

      Hiya – yeah it would. A 9″ tin is roughly 1/3 bigger in volume, so it would be quite a bit thinner! Otherwise – no difference.



  63. Kell on August 24, 2019 at 9:55 am

    Hi,
    Would it work if I put some chopped hazelnuts in the cheesecake mix? For extra crunch. Or am I better off adding to the base?
    Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 24, 2019 at 5:53 pm

      I would personally add it to the base! x



  64. Lizzy on May 3, 2019 at 8:57 am

    Thanks for this lovely recipe, I made it awhile back and everyone loved it, just one query, how do you stop the kinder pieces that you mix into the mixture from going soggy/chewy? Thanks x

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 3, 2019 at 2:29 pm

      You can’t, they will naturally soften due to the cheesecake.

    I made this for my friends birthday, it was a lot runnier than the Terrys Chocolate Orange one I did previously, so after setting in the fridge overnight, I popped it in the freezer. Now she has an ice cream cheesecake 🙂

  66. Morgan Redford on April 22, 2019 at 8:37 pm

    Hi, I love this recipe! I’ve just made it today for tomorrow!

    You mentioned sometimes the cheesecake being slippery. I used to have that issue. Sometimes it was from over whisking the double cream. But I also always had that trouble when I used Icing sugar. I always get excellent results using Caster sugar instead. It’s also not quite as sweet (so you get richer/smoother chocolate and stronger citrus flavours).

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 5, 2019 at 7:51 am

      I’m not 100% sure if I understand – but this cheesecake lasts for three days in the fridge. You can freeze it, but fresh is best. You must set in the fridge and then freeze for up to a month.



    • Lynda Waghorn on April 9, 2019 at 7:23 pm

    What happens if you don’t melt the kinder chocolate

      You will have a plain cheesecake with chunks of kinder in. I would 100% recommend melting it for the best flavour in this cheesecake!

  81. Hayley on February 8, 2018 at 2:13 pm

    I’ve tried this twice now, and each time, my mixture isn’t thickening after I add the cream. I whip it but it’s still sloppy. What am I doing wrong?

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 9, 2018 at 7:42 am

      It might be that your chocolate is too hot. If you are struggling, whip the cream separately and fold through, and also make the chocolate slightly cooler. Also, if using lower fat ingredients that can contribute!



  82. Vicky on December 17, 2017 at 9:30 pm

    Hi Jane!
    I made this today, it was absolutely delicious! My family loved it!
    Instead of a big cheesecake, I decided to make it into mini cheesecakes, like your mini egg nest recipe. I used muffin cases, as you suggest there, but found that the cheesecake mixture spread out in the cases and the cakes were very top-heavy. Any suggestions?

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 17, 2017 at 9:32 pm

      You can try miniature cake tins such as in my Mini Victoria Sponge cakes post, which make them straighter? x

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 10, 2017 at 7:37 pm

      Double cream is our fattiest liquid cream that you whip up. In America it’s considered heavy cream for example.



  86. Elle Alice on August 3, 2017 at 9:30 am

    After looking at this recipe almost every day for the last month I finally made it yesterday and it was such a success! Everyone who tried it thought it was delicious, and when decorated it really is such a showstopper. I am loving your recipes and you are really inspiring me to try new things, particularly with decoration. So so happy with how this turned out, thank you Jane!!

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 22, 2017 at 10:53 pm

      No, as you whip the cream yourself with the icing sugar it will be fine. You must whip it yourself and not use pre whipped cream.



  90. MFP on June 17, 2017 at 10:46 am

    Hi Jane, have tried this flavour and the caramac so far. Not sure if I’m doing it correctly. They set perfectly fine but the fillings don’t taste of the Bueno or caramac. They taste of normal filling. Is this what she supposed to happen? I stick to your recipe. Also when I melt the kinder/caramac when I add to the the filling it goes sort of hard with lumpy bits. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 17, 2017 at 2:01 pm

      If it’s gone hard and lumpy it’s seized which means it won’t have its full flavour no, as it’s reverted back to a solid. Try putting it in after cooling it for less time and it should be fine. It might be that it’s slightly too cool and then the other ingredients harden them again.



  91. Sana on June 13, 2017 at 3:39 pm

    Hi
    I made this cheesecake. It was delicious but i had a problem.
    The base was sooo hard
    I used 300 g biscuits and 150 g butter
    Another question, can i add some gelatin for cheesecake filling to have a better shape and if i can how much should i add?

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 13, 2017 at 4:26 pm

      Hiya! It’s a biscuit base so its meant to be solid – its a standard ratio of ingredients. And you can if you wish, but I’m not sure for the amounts as I don’t use it! ?



  92. Joanna Filomena on May 3, 2017 at 12:25 am

    Dear Jane,
    I have a small bakery and would love to add a cheesecake with kinder chocolate and a Biscoff bottom crust or in a cheesecake recipe. My question is do you have any recipe for a baked cheesecake? The no bake cheesecakes are wonderful in a home environment but will not stand up for any period of time as we would need a cheesecake to do.
    All of your creations are so beautiful and mouth watering and I am praying that I will be able to offer some form of any of them in my bakery.
    Thanks for your time and attention.

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 4, 2017 at 11:16 am

      I have a couple of baked cheesecake recipes on my blog – but they must still be stored in the fridge just like the no-bake ones?

  94. Ryan on April 29, 2017 at 4:34 pm

    The first time I made this it turned out fantastic but since then I’ve had some issues with it not setting completely. Is this likely due to under whisking after adding the double cream? Also is it possible to over whisk at all?

    Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 29, 2017 at 7:50 pm

      Hiya! Yes often its purely from it not being quite thick enough. If its because its over whipped it would be lumpy and almost split? x



  95. Des on March 13, 2017 at 5:50 am

    I made this and my Bueno pieces went soggy inside the cake

    Not sure how to avoid this

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 13, 2017 at 6:48 am

      You can’t, they’re there for flavour but the mixture will naturally make them soft.



  96. My Tran on March 2, 2017 at 9:20 pm

    Hi Jane this looks absolutely amazing!
    I just have a quick question – do you remember how much cream you used for the decoration? A rough pre-whipped measurement would be brill!
    Many thanks in advance. 🙂

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 2, 2017 at 9:21 pm

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 15, 2016 at 11:45 am

      I just chop each of the pieces up as it’ll break down a bit more when you mix it in, and they do go slightly soft but they’re there for the flavour more than anything.
