Mars Bar Cheesecake

When Craig asks his team what they want as an incentive prize they always want him to cook them some sort of cake / cheesecake. Last month they won "Team of the Month" and after a vote it was decided their prize would be a Mars bar cheesecake. After googling some recipes I found this one and Craig made it last night. I had a slice for morning tea and thought I would share this easy, delicious recipe with you.

Mars Bar Cheesecake
250g plain chocolate biscuits
125g butter, melted
2 tablespoons brown sugar
20g butter, extra
300ml thickened cream
50g milk eating chocolate, chopped finely
3 teaspoons gelatine
1/4 cup (60ml) water
2 x 250g packets cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (110g) caster sugar
3 x 60g Mars Bars, chopped finely

1. Blend or process biscuits until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add butter process until just combined. Press biscuit mixture evenly over base and side of 20cm springform tin, place on tray; refrigerate about 30 minutes or until firm.
2. Meanwhile make butterscotch sauce; combine brown sugar, extra butter and 2 tablespoons of the cream in small saucepan. Stir over low heat, without boiling until sugar dissolves.
3. Make chocolate sauce; combine chocolate and another 2 tablespoons of the cream in another small saucepan; stir over low heat until chocolate melts.
4. Sprinkle gelatine over the water in small heatproof jug; stand jug in small saucepan of simmering water, stir until gelatine dissolves. Cool for 5 minutes
5. Beat cream cheese and caster sugar in medium bowl with electric mixer until smooth. Beat remaining cream in small bowl with electric mixer until soft peaks form. Stir gelatine mixture into cream cheese mixture with Mars Bars; fold in cream.
6. Pour half of the cream cheese mixture into crumb crust; drizzle half of the butterscotch and chocolate sauces over cream cheese mixture. Pull skewer backwards and forwards through mixture to create marbled effect. Repeat with remaining cream cheese mixture and sauces. Cover cheesecake; refrigerate for about 3 hours or until set.
