I thought what better recipe to share with you than this Birthday Cheesecake, mainly because yesterday was my birthday

Let's get baking!

Ingredients:

Base:

350g custard creams/golden oreo's

100g unsalted butter, melted

Cheesecake:

500ml double cream

250g mascarpone cheese

250g cream cheese

180g icing sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp almond extract

60g sprinkles

Topping:

Remaining whipped cream

Sprinkles

Start off by crushing your biscuits and putting into a bowl, then add the melted butter and mix together until combined.

Pop the mixture into a tin and smooth out to the edges and set to one side, I always use a loose bottom tart tin for my cheesecakes.

In a bowl add your double cream and whisk to stiff peaks.

In a separate bowl, add the mascarpone, cream cheese, icing sugar and the vanilla and almond extracts.

Then whisk together until fully combined.

Fold in 2/3 of the whipped cream and then add your sprinkles and fold those in too.

Put the mixture onto your biscuit base and smooth out to the edges.

Pop into the fridge to chill for at least 6 hours.

Before serving remove the tin side and add more sprinkles over the top and pipe on the remaining whipped cream.

Then you're ready to serve and enjoy.

This cheesecake is absolutely delicious, I knew from the first taste that this would be a cheesecake I would make again and again, I even made this cheesecake at Christmas, adding more Christmas coloured sprinkles as well as making Meringue Christmas Trees to decorate the top of the cheesecake.

I didn't think Skye would like this cheesecake because of the almond extract, but she devoured it, while you can taste the almond extract, it's really subtle and really adds to the flavours.

It's definitely a moreish cheesecake
