Preparation
- Line the base of a 23cm (9-inch) springform pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Press this mixture into the bottom of the pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
- Whip the double cream until stiff peaks form, usually taking about 3-5 minutes.
- Sift in the powdered icing sugar, vanilla bean paste, and a pinch of salt into the cream cheese, mixing gently.
- Fold in the whipped cream carefully to maintain its lightness.
- Gently fold in two-thirds of the crushed Mini Eggs.
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the biscuit base, smooth the top, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Once set, release from the springform pan and decorate with remaining crushed Mini Eggs.
- Slice and serve cold.
