Ingredients
Scale
- 200g digestive biscuits
- 100g unsalted butter, melted
- 400g cream cheese
- 100g sugar
- 2 teaspoons Earl Grey tea leaves
- 200ml heavy cream
- 3 eggs
- 300g fresh mulberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
- Crush the digestive biscuits and mix them with the melted butter. Press this mixture into the base of a springform pan to form the crust.
- In a bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add the Earl Grey tea leaves and mix well.
- Gradually beat in the heavy cream, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition until fully combined.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust in the springform pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, until set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Allow the cheesecake to cool before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- For the topping, combine mulberries, lemon juice, and cornstarch in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the mulberries break down and the sauce thickens.
- Once cooled, spread the mulberry topping over the cheesecake before serving.
Notes
Serve chilled, cut into slices. Pairs well with whipped cream or coffee. For stronger tea flavor, steep tea leaves in cream before mixing.
