Recipe's preparation

    Base

  1. Prepare either a 22cm springform pan, 12 normal size muffin pans, or 24 mini-muffin pans. Straight sided silicone pans work best for individual muffins. If not using silicone moulds, spray with cooking spray, or line with butter.


     


     


  2. Place the nuts in the TM bowl and grind speed 8/10 seconds, or until fine. Remove from TM bowl and set aside.  


     


     

  3. Place chocolate and butter into TM bowl and heat 2-5mins/50C/speed 3 until melted.


     


  4. Turn TM on to 1 min/speed 5 and slowly pour the ground nuts through the measuring cup aperture, continue until well combined.


     


  5. Place approximately one tablespoon of base per mini muffin. Press nut base into each patty pan until level, you can use the base of the MC for this. Refrigerate to set.


     


     


    6. Cheese Filling

  6. Place the lemon rind into the TM bowl and grate for 30s/speed 8.


     


     


  7. Add the lemon juice to TM bowl with the rind. Heat 90/1 minute/speed 3, slowly pouring the gelatine powder through the MC aperture.


     


     


  8. Add the cream cheese and sugar to the TM bowl. Whip for 1min/speed 8.


     


     


  9. Insert the butterfly. Add cream and whip further 1 min/speed 4 or until 2well combined.


     


     


  10. Pour the mixture over the chilled bases to 1/4cm from the top of the pans [to allow space for the topping]. Place into the refrigerator to set.


     


     


    11. Fruit Topping

  11. Place all of the ingredients except the gelatine into the TM bowl. Cook 100/10 mins/speed 2/counter-clockwise operation


     


     


  12. Strain off 3 tablespoons of the hot liquid from the topping mixture into a cup, and sprinkle over the gelatine, stirring until dissolved.


     


     


  13. Turn on the topping mixture in the TM bowl to 1min/speed 2/counter-clockwise operation, while slowly pouring the gelatine mixture into the TM bowl.


     


     


  14. Allow the topping mixture to cool to room temperature, and then pour onto the previously set and chilled cheesecake base and filling. Return to the refrigerator to set, preferably overnight, or alternatively, the tarts can be frozen, which makes the tarts much easier to turn out. Remove and turn out about one half hour before serving.


     


     


Tip

These cheesecakes are light and lemony, and the base has a lovely, crisp texture. The gelatine keeps the shape, so they can be sideless, and they look gorgeous if you use the same base with different toppings, like lemon, passionfruit, and berry. Too easy!
