About

This rich and savory mini cheesecake is like having cheese and biscuits – all in one!

A deliciously savory snack, perfect for an afternoon treat or post dinner. This is also great on its own served alongside a simple green salad.

Ingredients

  • 5 ounce cream cheese spread
  • 3 ½ ounce blue cheese
  • ½ cup, halves walnuts
  • ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
  • ½ tablespoon rosemary, fresh
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, sea salt
  • ⅛ tablespoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Add the rosemary to a food processor along with the walnuts, salt and pepper. Pulse to combine, forming a crumb.
  2. Melt the butter in a small pan over a gentle heat and add the crumb mixture, stirring well until coated in the butter. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Line a large ramekin with plastic wrap, so that it is overhanging the sides. Tip in the crumb mixture. Press down to form a firm and even layer. Transfer this to the fridge to set whilst you prepare the cheese.
  4. Add the cream cheese and blue cheese to a mixing bowl and mash together until thoroughly combined.
  5. Remove the set base from the fridge and spoon over the cheese layer. Return to the fridge for a further 30 minutes to firm up. Carefully lift the cheesecake out of the ramekin using the plastic wrap. Slice to serve.
