Hello everyone it is Barry here welcome to myvirginkitchen hope you are well todays recipe
I am so excited about it is a daim bar and popcorn no bake cheesecake, without further
a do lets get cracking.
Ok so right here are some digestive biscuits also known as graham crackers and some popcorn
we will pour that into the bag we are going to make our crust at the moment so get it
nice and sealed like this grab a rolling pin you going to be ok Boston ok cool give it
a bash we are going to get the popcorn and the biscuits into nice crumbs.
Ok so nice funky crumbs there with biscuits and popcorn few little chunks but that is
all good can you hear that, it is my microwave I have just melted up some butter.
Ok so our melted butter is going in there with the popcorn and those biscuits so it
will help cling it all together so mix it all through get it all in there and any minute
now we will put in our dish to create our base so in that goes into our dish I have
given it a slight lining with a lip to make it easier to get out later on but it is still
wet so while it is like that we can grab a spoon and press it into place while the butter
is still wet it will grip it all so get it nice and flat and even there we go so our
butter biscuit base with an upgrade of popcorn can go in the fridge while we work on the
filling.
Boston is going to keep an eye on the fridge for us these are our daim bars we are going
to put actual daim bars in the cheesecake if you cannot get hold of these I have a video
recipe for homemade daim bars you may want to check that out I will put the link in the
description but all we are going to do is bash these all up mostly for the filling but
also a little bit for the garnish at the end, there is popcorn in the base and daim bars
in the cheesecake itself.
That rough texture is fine we want that nice shard effect of the daim bars wahoo!
To make our filling we get some icing sugar aka confectioners sugar, oh look at that cloud
mysterious this is some cream cheese just push that all in there, just giving it a light
whisk great so the icing sugar is in there now we pour in the double cream oh yes notice
that it is thin because we are going to whip it up to generate that thickness in just a
bit you know it is done when it is leaving that really cool trail like that like the
lines on a tree anyhow this is some melted milk chocolate that is quite a cool shot on
its own I hope you are dribbling now like I am here we go.
Hopefully you can see how noticeably thick that has got with the chocolate and what you
may want to do is a scrape of the bowl down the side to make sure there is no chocolate
hiding away there and the only other thing to add in is our daim bar pieces so I am grabbing
a good handful of the daim bar pieces sprinkling it all in there remember to leave a little
for some garnish get at least 3 quarters of it on the top unless you want to go extravagant
but in that case you could buy more, now I am just going to grab my spatula we do not
want to disturb the mixture too much we will just fold this through and if you do not like
daim bars, some of you will say that because of the almonds in there you could put any
chocolate bar you want in this go for snickers or Ferrero rocher oh my gosh.
So we are just sticking that mixture in there get it in and press to the outer edges there
we are so that is nice and smoothed out and level, two important things with a no bake
cheesecake, 1 make sure the topping is super thick so that whipping stage is critical and
secondly put it in the fridge for at least 3 hours to make sure you get a good set on
it and that is exactly where this is going right now.
It has been 3 hours to set boston is all nice and walked while I was out I had a package
arrive a mini grater from tess so thanks so much for that and everyone who offered to
send one lets finish this cheesecake off ok I have taken that out, all I am doing is cutting
the cheesecake into bar shapes.
Ok lets finish this off so we have some more daim bar crumbs sitting on top like that a
couple of pieces of popcorn and lets finish it with a drizzle of toffee sauce just over
the top like that oh my gosh.
Loving that just could not help myself I had to put some more popcorn on the top and more
daim bar in that sauce I think we should have a taste.
Lets just take a moment to appreciate it, ok that is enough I am getting straight into
it oh so excited oh I am going to take off I am going to fly that is so naughty but so
good loving it really creamy texture the popcorn in the base is just running through and of
course the daim bar in the cheesecake too absolutely gorgeous as always guys I really
