I can post the Masterchef's Lemon Ricotta Cheesecake if you like. I've made it and it is to die for!

allurs, the following recipe isn't exactly as the recipe you have enjoyed but maybe it will be a suitable substitute.It's the recipe from my very first attempt - a very successful one! - at making a cheesecake.

HEAVENLY CHEESECAKE - always popular whenever I make it so I hope you will enjoy it too.
Crumb Crust:
1 packet plain biscuits, crushed
170g butter, melted

Combine the biscuits and butter, then spread evenly into a 22·5cm (9”) springform tin and up the sides. Chill while preparing the Filling:
1 tbsp gelatine
250g cream cheese
¾ cup sugar
3 eggs
¼ cup each of water, lemon juice and milk
pinch salt

Blend the gelatine with the water and lemon juice, then set it aside. Combine the cream cheese, ½ cup sugar, beaten egg yolks, milk and salt. Cook over simmering water for 10 minutes, then blend in the gelatine mixture. Cool the mixture.
Beat 3 egg whites, gradually adding the remaining ¼ cup sugar, until soft peaks form. Fold this into cheese mixture and pour the filling carefully into crumb crust. Refrigerate.
If desired, pile whipped cream on top and serve as a dessert or as a cake with coffee.
This is nicest at least 1 day old, and freezes well too. :-))

Method
For the Biscuit base:

1. Preheat oven to 165°C. Grease and baking paper line the base of a 20cm round spring form cake tin.
2. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Add butter and bring together forming a firm crumb. Tip crumbs into prepared tin and smooth over with the back of a spoon to achieve a thin even layer. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.

For the Ricotta Cheesecake Mix:
3. Reduce oven to 90°C. Place all ingredients into the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Pass though a fine sieve.
4. Pour mix over biscuit base, tap tin firmly on the bench to release air bubbles and bake for 25-30 minutes or until centre reaches 66°C. It will appear still very soft, leave to set in the fridge for 6-8 hours or overnight before serving.

For the Plum sorbet:
5. Place water, sugar and chopped plums into a saucepan over a medium high heat and cook until plums are tender. Allow to cool slightly. Pour into the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth.
6. Chill over an ice water bath. Pour into a prechilled ice-cream machine and churn according to manufacturers instructions.

For the Fruit salad:
7. To serve, spread a little crème fraiche down the centre of the plate. Place a slice of the cheesecake in the centre and cover the crème fraiche with the fruit salad.":-))

I came across this cheesecake recently and have tried it, delicious.
Cheats Cheesecake

1 jelly (any flavour)
1 small bottle of cream, whipped
1 small yoghurt (flavour to compliment the jelly)


Make a biscuit base as usual. Make the jelly with only 1c boiling water and allow to cool but not set. Whip cream, beat yoghurt into cream, beat cool jelly into cream/yoghurt mix and pile onto biscuit base. Set in fridge and decorate with matching fresh or tinned fruit, cream, white chocolate curls.

This recipe was in last weeks Woman's Weekly and l made it up and it is so nice but next time l am going to add some dark choc chips to make it like jaffa ice cream

Orange Cheesecake
85g packet orange jelly
¾ cup boiling water
250g chocolate chip biscuits
125g melted butter
250g traditional cream cheese, at room temperature
½ cup caster sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup orange juice
Zest of 1 orange
1 cup cream
1 x 216g bag of crunchie bars
Optional - handful of dark chocolate chips
Make a jelly with the boiling water and cool for 10 minutes while you prepare the base and cream cheese mix
Crush the biscuits in a food processor and combine with the melted butter
Press the mixture into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a loose based 21cm tin. CHILL
Into a large mixing bowl, put room temperature cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, juice and orange zest
Mash or using a stick blender, process until smooth
Add cooling jelly and some dark chocolate chips if you want
Beat cream until light and fluffy and add this to the cream cheese mixture
Fold everything together and pour half the mixture onto the crumb base
Crumble half the crunchie bars over the cheese cake then pour remaining mixture on top
Chill overnight
Crumble the rest of the crunchie bars over the top of the cheesecake just before serving
This can be stored in the fridge for days, when covered with ling film, and it freezes beautifully
If planning this as a dessert for a party, make ahead of time, wrap well again in cling film and freeze
Place in fridge the morning of the party to defrost gently
If you forget, fear not the cheesecake is quite delicious semi-frozen
Variation:- you can make a lemon cheesecake you use round wine biscuits for the base and lemon jelly and fresh lemon instead of orange
