dancing cloud Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 When I've made them before I've used the usual digestives-and-butter approach, but it always ends up as a crumby mess rather than a proper base. I just know someone will have a brilliant solution - please share! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I usually use the same. Am on WW diet so did some mini ones using oreos as a base. Yumeeee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Up the amount of butter and that will make it not crumbly. It has to be a butter and digestive mix in my mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I love ginger biscuit base mixed with melted butter. Especially with a white chocolate cheesecake topping ala Wagamamas cheesecake As has already been mentioned, you may need to up your butter content. I find some biscuits, like flour, take up differing amounts of butter. Also, press it a bit more firmly in your tin so it forms a firmer base.

dancing cloud Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Thank you! I'll try more butter and forceful pressing . Any chance of the recipe for that white chocolate cheesecake? Just thinking about it make me ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Sure! http://comfortbites.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/white-chocolate-and-ginger-cheesecake.html My son has requested it for his birthday a few years ago and it was a big hit. He loves Wagamamas version and this is pretty close. I do add lots more ginger syrup than it states though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluekarin Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Looks so good, I think I'll try it when there's no one else around Best way I think It is so moreish! I am to usually a fan of white chocolate in puds, as it can be sweet without flavour. This isn't which is what makes it dangerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
