1

Crushing and Mixing the Biscuit Base

Preparing the Lychee Liqueur Layer

In a separate bowl, combine 250 milliliters of lychee liqueur and 250 milliliters of double cream. Stir them together until well-blended and set aside. This mouthwatering combination will give your cheesecake a burst of fruity goodness!

3

Whipping up the Cream Cheese Filling

In a large mixing bowl, beat 500 grams of cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy. Gradually add 200 grams of icing sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cream cheese, continuing to beat until well-incorporated. Marvel at the fluffy goodness!

Layering and Chilling the Cheesecake

Now, it's time to assemble the masterpiece! Spread the biscuit base evenly into the bottom of a springform or loose-bottomed cake tin. Pour half of the lychee liqueur and cream mixture over the biscuit base, ensuring an even layer. Next, pour the cream cheese filling on top, smoothing it out with a spatula. Finally, pour the remaining lychee liqueur and cream mixture over the cream cheese layer. Pop the tin into the fridge and let your creation chill for at least 4 hours or overnight if you can resist the temptation!

If you're feeling extra fancy, dust the cake with a sprinkle of icing sugar. Slice yourself a generous portion, sit back, and enjoy the sensory explosion that awaits in each luscious bite!
