One of my personal all time favourite puddings from being little has been cheesecake.
Although I have loved a variety of cheesecakes over the years the no bake variety has by far been my favourite.
However I have a confession to make … I have never made a proper non packet version. So last week while trailing some new tasty cookies over on my other blog The Oliver’s Madhouse I decided to use the Maryland Thins cookies as the basis for my cheesecake and I decided to finally give it a go.
With some rough guidelines from my Mother in Law who herself makes epic no bake cheesecakes I set about trying to create my first.

I am so immensely pleased with how this cheesecake turned out and I am certainly going to have to make it again. Although I may even double the quantities to make it a much deeper cheesecake than this time round.
Also I would make the base with the salted caramel biscuits instead of just decorating it with the salted caramel and using the milk and dark chocolate cookies for the base.
I think it would be more than possible to use the original Maryland cookies too if you preferred them over the thins, however I did find the thins gave a really crisp base.
It went down so well it was gone in less than 2 days and at this rate I am never going to be slim at this beauty is packed with calories as I opted for full fat cream cheese. I am sure it could be adapted for a lower calorie and fat option but for now this dreamy cheesecake can stay as it is!
Disclaimer: Although we were sent some of the products for the purposes of a review on The Oliver’s Madhouse this recipe was completely non paid for I just wanted to share my first ever cheesecake!
Looks delicious
