Rainbow Zebra Cheesecake @tastemadeuk⠀
INGREDIENTS:⠀
300g choc chip biscuits⠀
150g unsalted butter, room temp⠀
1200g cream cheese⠀
300g caster sugar⠀
6 large eggs⠀
6 large egg yolks⠀
1 tsp vanilla bean extract⠀
2 tbsp lemon juice ⠀
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, dark purple, and pink food coloring⠀
23cm cake tin ⠀
Foil and clingfilm⠀
⠀
STEPS:⠀
Preheat the oven to 180, and line the bottom of a 23cm springform tin.⠀
Blitz the choc chip biscuits in a food processor.⠀
Melt the butter then add in the biscuit crumb, mixing to make sure it’s all well covered.⠀
Tip the buttery biscuit into the prepared tin, and press it down with the back of a spoon.⠀
Put the base in the fridge to chill while you make the fill.⠀
Beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth.⠀
Add the eggs and egg yolks one at a time, and mix thoroughly to incorporate.⠀
Finally, add the vanilla and lemon juice.⠀
Divide the cheesecake mix into 7 portions, and color each one a different color of the rainbow - Pink - 150g, Dark purple - 200g, Blue - 250g, Green - 300g, Yellow - 350g, Orange - 400g, Red - 450g.⠀
Wrap a few layers of foil around your tin - to make it watertight - and place it in a larger tin so that it’s sitting in a water bath. Don’t add water yet⠀
Start layering your tin; Spoon all of the red cheesecake filling into the middle of the cheesecake base.⠀
Then gently spoon the orange filling on top of that, followed by yellow, then the rest of the colors - with pink being the final color.⠀
If you want to create a further pattern on top, use a skewer to draw lines from the middle to the outside of the cheesecake.⠀
Slide the cheesecake in its tray onto a shelf in your preheated oven.⠀
Use water from the kettle to fill the water bath - just to around halfway up the cheesecake.⠀
Close the door then bake the cheesecake for 1hr 30 minutes. It should be just set.⠀
Let the cheesecake cool in the tin, then chill until ready to serve.⠀
Use a hot knife to remove the springform, and to slice the cheesecake. ⠀
