Peach cheesecake

Decided to try peach cheesecake l have wanted too for a while, so took the plunge.

For the base

65g crushed homemade Orange Biscuits (or digestives)

20g melted butter

For the topping

110g peaches tinned

45g caster sugar

5g cornflour

Small bit of water for cornflour

For the filling

125g double cream

75g cream cheese

25g caster sugar

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Method:

Melt butter and add crushed biscuits, put some in ramekins (this makes 3). Leave to cool.

Pour the peaches and syrup in a pan, add the sugar and simmer for about 5 minutes. Mix the cornflour with water, and add to the pan. Keep on low heat for a few more minutes until it thickens. Then leave to cool, put about 1/3 to one side for topping. (I pushed a bit through a sieve to get some smooth for mixing through as well).

Mix the cream cheese to soften and stir in the vanilla extract, whip the cream and sugar until stiff. Fold the peaches and whipped cream through the cream cheese until combined. Then add to the ramekins, add some peaches amd syrup on top and put in thr fridge for a few hours. Then eat and enjoy.
