Mountain Dew Cheesecake @thescranline⠀
INGREDIENTS:⠀
300g graham crackers, crushed⠀
½ cup unsalted butter, melted⠀
⠀
CHEESECAKE:⠀
300g cream cheese⠀
½ drop green food gel⠀
1 drops yellow food gel⠀
Zest of 1 orange⠀
Zest of 1 lemon⠀
2 tbsp Greek yogurt⠀
½ cup sweetened condensed milk⠀
1 tsp vanilla extract⠀
⠀
MOUNTAIN DEW GLAZE:⠀
1 cup mountain dew soda⠀
1 tbsp powdered gelatine⠀
⠀
STEPS:⠀
Begin by adding your graham crackers into a food processor. Blitz until finely crumbed. Add the melted butter and pulse to help coat the crumbs in the butter.⠀
Pour out into a long tart tin and use the back of a tablespoon or the bottom of a glass to help spread and firmly press the wet crumb mixture into the sides and bottom of the tart tin. Chill for 20 min.⠀
For the Cheesecake- Add all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl and mix on low speed to begin with, slowly making your way up to high speed. Pour into the chilled tart tin and chill for 2 hours to set.⠀
For the Mountain Dew Glaze- To prepare the mountain dew glaze, add the powdered gelatine to a small mixing bowl and about 4 tbsp of the mountain dew into the bowl. Mix until well combined. Allow to set for 5 min then microwave for 1 minute to melt.⠀
Add the remaining mountain dew into a large microwave safe bowl and microwave for 2 min or until very hot. This will help get rid of the fizz in the drink so that we end up with a nice smooth glaze.⠀
Add the melted gelatine mixture into the hot mountain dew and use a whisk to combine until everything is melted. Allow the mixture to cool but not set. About 10 minutes.⠀
Pour the cooled mountain dew glaze into the chilled cheesecake. Allow to set in the fridge for 30 minutes before slicing up to serve.⠀
