A Creamy, Chocolatey, Sweet, and delicious No-Bake Galaxy Cheesecake using Galaxy Golden Eggs. Perfect non-bake for Easter, or for any time of the year!
Last year, I only discovered Galaxy Golden Eggs with two days to go before they stopped being sold. So, I was slightly heartbroken. I don’t even know why, but whenever I went into any supermarket, there weren’t any of these delicious beings! So therefore, I decided to go all out this year, and make a Cheesecake based on them.
Based on the idea of my No-Bake Honeycomb Crunchie Cheesecake I decided to use Galaxy Chocolate itself as the chocolate to melt into the cheesecake, so it made it even more delicious. I used slightly more than usual and it set so much better!
I then thought that using the Golden Eggs would be delicious… but as I found a bar of the Galaxy Collection Salted Caramel in my cupboard, I knew I had to add that too! Literally this cheesecake is a bit of a Galaxy mush.
A classic Jane twist of a drizzle of Melted Galaxy Chocolate, Whipped Cream, Sprinkles and the chocolate of choice (Golden Eggs, obviously!) I was set. Honestly? This is genuinely of the best cheesecakes I have made. I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
If you are more of a Cadburys kind of person, then check out my Cadburys Chocolate Cheesecake for sure – but this one is Galaxy through and through. It can really be used for more than Easter time, but its decorated with the wonderful Golden Eggs that I wish were available year round.
The recipe is on my youtube channel in a vlog if you would like to see it made! I have decided that after the hopeful success of my first Baking Vlog the other day, that I would do some recipes on youtube as well.
I wasn’t sure if I was ever going to share this recipe on here originally, as it was just intended for youtube, but after countless requests I updated this post to include it. I realise the photos themselves are a bit sub par, but I haven’t had the time to photograph this beauty again!
I’m sure all you Galaxy loving beauties out there will adore this cheesecake. I’m on the fence about whether I prefer Galaxy or Cadburys in general, but in cheesecake form?! I will admit that I prefer this one. The galaxy chocolate itself just melts so incredibly well into the mix, that how can I not?! Enjoy! x

September 7, 2020 at 9:48 amHi Jane, another delicious recipe, I did this with just galaxy caramel instead of golden eggs! I did find this didn’t set as well as the Lindt one that I’ve made a couple of times previously..and I did everything the same i.e. making sure the cream was stiff before placing it in the tin, not over whipping so it was sloppy etc etc. Is there a reason for this was a bit soft? This also happened in the same way with the Caramac cheesecake when I tried this. If I used more chocolate would this set better, or is there such a thing as over doing it when it comes to combining chocolate in a cheesecake? All were set over-night and the morning also.

September 7, 2020 at 2:26 pmDarker chocolate will always set better, but you can definitely over do it. Sometimes it does just need a bit longer to set (some people find two days in the fridge but obviously that reduces eating time), it can be that the melted chocolate was too hot etc! x

July 2, 2019 at 7:34 pmHi Jane, I have been thinking about making a galaxy caramel cheesecake , in some of your other recipes you have added carnations caramel into the mix itself. Would adding some caramel to this particular mix interfere with the mixture too much ?
Jane's Patisserie
July 2, 2019 at 9:29 pmI just personally didn’t think it needed it for the flavour, but you could add some in if you wish! Have a look at my Snickers cheesecake for the filling as that uses chocolate and caramel!

May 26, 2019 at 11:19 pmHi Jane, will this work with half mascarpone and half full fat cream cheese. Many Thanks.
Jane's Patisserie
May 27, 2019 at 12:26 pmYes! As long as the mascarpone is regular, and not the lighter one!

November 16, 2018 at 11:28 amHi Jane, what size packets of golden eggs did you use? I watched the video but you don’t say. Need to find an alternative as not available in the shops at the moment
Thank you

November 16, 2018 at 5:02 pmIt will be written in the description of the video on youtube x

March 17, 2018 at 4:31 pmHi Jane,
If I made this into individual cheesecakes (cupcake tin?), how many do you think it would make?
Thanks
Jane's Patisserie
March 18, 2018 at 2:00 pmProbably 12-15! X

March 14, 2018 at 9:27 pmHi Jane
Will it still set if I don’t add the chocolate bits in the cheesecake filling (aiming for fewer calories lol)?
Also if I wanted to add a bit chocolate pieces, will the normal galaxy be ok?
Thanks 🙂
P.s really enjoying making your recipes
Jane's Patisserie
March 15, 2018 at 9:43 amHiya! So do you mean to not add melted chocolate to make it a chocolate cheesecake? So you’d want a vanilla cheesecake? It would set, but they’re never quite as firm as ones with chocolate. But yes normal galaxy pieces would work inside it! x

March 15, 2018 at 6:57 pmSorry if I didn’t make sense. I ment will the cheesecake filling still set if I didn’t add the chocolate eggs and galaxy caramel chocolate pieces to the filling?
Alternatively can I add little of the smooth galaxy choc pieces in the filling instead ?
I am new learner when it comes to baking so hence why with all the questions lol
P.s thank you for your prompt response.
Jane's Patisserie
March 16, 2018 at 9:58 amAhh okay yes, that would work!

December 23, 2017 at 1:46 pmHi Jane, do you know if a food processor would give similar results as a stand mixer making a cheesecake?
Jane's Patisserie
December 24, 2017 at 8:30 amProbably not, but I have never tried. Does your food processor have a whisk attachment? you could try that!
