Blitz the biscuits in a mini chopper.

Liquidise the butter in the Microwave for about 2 minutes. Mix the biscuit and butter and press into the cheesecake base. Put to one side.

Step 3

Using my old fashioned 70's Kenwood I whizzed the cream until nearly thick. Now add the cream cheese, caster sugar, lemon zest and juice. Mix until really thick.
