Instructions
- Place the Digestive Biscuits into a bowl and crush them up until they resemble fine sand. Melt the butter and add to the cookie crumbs and mix together. Line the baking tin with waxed paper. Place the cookie mixture into the baking tin.
Press down into the tin and make a smooth base. Place in the fridge to chill whilst you make the cheesecake filling. - Place the Mascarpone cheese, cream cheese and the powdered sugar into a bowl.
Add the vanilla essence and beat together until smooth and fluffy. Whisk the cream until thick. Spoon onto the cheese and sugar mixture and stir through. Place half the cream into the baking tin on top of the cookie base.
Smooth the top and sieve some cocoa over the surface.
Dip the lady fingers into the espresso coffee and lay on to the cocoa.
Top with the remaining cream mixture and level the surface. Place in the fridge to set. - Once set dust the top liberally with more cocoa powder. Remove from the tin and place onto a serving plate. Cut the remaining lady fingers in half and stand all around the edge of the cheesecake. Press firmly so they adhere to the dessert.
You are now ready to serve. Enjoy!!!
