Ingredients

Cheesecake:

  • 8 ounces digestive biscuits with dark chocolate
  • 1 stick (½ cup) butter, melted
  • 1 pound Yoplait SKYR Blueberry
  • 2 eggs
  • Seeds from ½ vanilla bean
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2½ tablespoons gelatine powder (or 8 sheets)

Lemon curd:

  • juice of 7 lemons
  • 6 eggs
  • 9 egg yolk
  • 280g sugar
  • 336g butter

Method

For the lemon curd:

  1. Mix eggs, yolk, lemon curd and sugar in a pan whisking all the time- until you see little bubbles
  2. Take off the heat and slowly add the cold diced butter.
  3. When all the butter is mixed, pour onto a tray and leave to cool.

For the cheesecake:

  1. Line an 8-inch round springform pan with parchment paper. Crush the biscuits into a coarse meal and mix with the melted butter. Press in the bottom of the pan to make an even layer. Set aside in the refrigerator while you make the cake.
  2. Whisk the yogurt, eggs and vanilla together in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whip the cream until medium stiff peaks form. Fold the cream into the yogurt mixture.
  3. Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and add the gelatin, stirring well until the gelatin is dissolved. Pour into the yogurt and cream mixture, and fold to combine.
  4. Pour over the biscuit layer and cover the pan with plastic wrap. Let set in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or freeze for later use. If freezing the cake, defrost by thawing for 8 hours in the refrigerator or 3 hours at room temperature.
  5. Decorate the cake with blue berry compote and lemon curd
