    Yesterday we celebrated my husband’s birthday, and let me just say when you are a home baker, (especially one with a baking blog!) to say there are high expectations and just a little bit of pressure when it comes to making birthday cakes is an understatement!  After much nagging questioning on my part in the days leading up to his birthday, he finally admitted he didn’t really mind what type of cake I made as he wouldn’t be eating much of it anyway –  he is ‘in training’ for a big cycling race this weekend.  With that in mind, I decided to be a little bit creative and experiment with this Mars Bar and Malteser Cheesecake I had been thinking about for sometime now.

    Mars Bar and Malteser Cheesecake

    This recipe was inspired by my no-bake Malteser and Mars Bar Slice and as I watched the melted mars bars combine with the creamy cheesecake mixture – I knew I was onto something good.  I did consider holding back a little on the Maltesers (mainly so I could eat some!) but decided if there was ever a time to go all out – this was it.

    Mars Bar and Malteser Cheesecake 3

    After sharing a video of putting this cheesecake together over on my Facebook page, it became pretty clear that I wasn’t the only one who hoped this recipe turned out.  We left the cheesecake safely tucked away in the fridge and went out for an early dinner (as you do with two kids under 3) and when we got home it was time to see how my experiment had gone.

    As I nervously removed the tin, I breathed a huge sigh of relief as the cheesecake held its shape.  I again held my breath when cutting the very first slice and thankfully a piece of this rich and smooth cheesecake easily slid away.

    After a short break to take photos of the cheesecake (as you do) we finally lit a candle and sang happy birthday to the big boy, who after proclaiming he wasn’t interested in eating cake, happily enjoyed two large pieces.

    Ingredients
      

    • 200 g of chocolate ripple biscuits 1 pack

    • 500 g of cream cheese - softened
    • 130 g of thickened cream
    • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
    • 110 g of caster sugar
    • 4 x Mars Bars
    • 2 x 155g packs of Maltesers

    Instructions
     

    • Line the base of a 22cm springform tin with baking paper and lightly grease the sides. Set aside until needed.
    • Process the chocolate ripple biscuits (or similar) until the resemble breadcrumbs. Add the melted butter and stir until combined.
    • Pour the biscuit mixture into your prepared tin and use a large metal spoon to cover the base with the mixture and flatten the surface.
    • In the bowl of an electric mixer, add the softened cream cheese, cream, caster sugar and vanilla extract and mix on a medium to high speed or until the mixture is thick, creamy and smooth.
    • Meanwhile, chop the Mars Bars into small pieces and place in a microwave safe bowl. Cook for 30 second spurts (stirring in between each cook) until they have melted.
    • Add the melted Mars Bars to your cream cheese mixture and mix on a medium speed to combine. Remove the mixer bowl from the stand and add 1 packet (approx 155g) of Maltesers and gently stir them through.
    • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the biscuit base and top with the remaining Maltesers.
    • Place in the fridge to set. Ideally you want to leave this overnight, but is should be ok after 4 hours.
    • Remove the set cheesecake from the fridge and serve.

    Mars Bar and Malteser Cheesecake Thermomix Instructions

    1. Line the base of a 22cm springform tin with baking paper and lightly grease the sides. Set aside until needed.

    2. Cut the butter in half and place into your Thermomix bowl.  Cook for 2 minutes on 60 degrees speed 3 or until melted.

    3. Add the chocolate ripple biscuits and mix for 10 seconds on speed 9.  Use your spatula to scrape down the sides and mix again for another 10 seconds on speed 7.

    4. Pour the biscuit mixture into your prepared tin and use a large metal spoon to cover the base with the biscuit mixture and flatten the surface.

    5. Cut the Mars Bars into quarters and place them in a clean Thermomix bowl.  Chop them for 10 seconds on speed 7 before cooking them for 3 minutes, 60 degrees, speed 2 or until melted.

    6. Add the vanilla extract, cream cheese, cream and caster sugar to the Thermomix bowl and mix for 30 seconds on speed 5. Scrape down the sides and mix for another 3o seconds on speed 5.

    7. Add 155g of Maltesers to the Thermomix bowl and mix for 20 seconds on reverse speed 2.

    8. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the biscuit base and top with the remaining Maltesers.

    9. Place in the fridge to set. Ideally, you want to leave this overnight, but it should be ok after 4 hours.

    10. Remove the set cheesecake from the fridge and serve.

    Notes

    The above mixing times may vary depending on the softness of your cream cheese and Mars Bars. I suggest using cream cheese and Mars Bars which are both at room temperature and are soft.

    This cheesecake is quite soft as it doesn’t contain gelatine. If your cheesecake is too soft or runny when you cut it – pop it back in the fridge to let it set for a bit longer.

      Just attempted the filling twice. I had the problem where the Mars hardened as soon as it hit the cream cheese both times … The second time I made sure it was much more melted but still the same problem. Had the chocolate melting for ages and it stayed at a thick melted consistency for so long I assumed that was as runny as it was going to get. Will have to wait till morning to buy more ingredients and try again.

        Hi Samantha, I’m so sorry the recipe is not working out for you. Maybe you could try letting the melted Mars Bars cool just a little before adding to the mixture?

      I made this for Mother’s Day and it was delicious and went down a treat! Found the mars bars solidified quickly after coming into contact with the cold mixture but left chewy bites in the slices (which was actually pretty good)! So easy to make!

        Hi Ilona, Thanks for the feedback, so glad you guys enjoyed it! Hmm, were your Mars Bars super cold (e.g. from the fridge?) maybe that’s why they solidified quickly?

      any suggestion on another type of chocolate to use in place of the mars bars? Could you just use any other kind of chocolate that melts easily?

        Hi Blaire, I haven’t used a bellini before so am not sure how it would go. I think it should be ok 🙂

      This was so popular at our Biggest Morning Tea fundraiser this morning! Points for both presentation and taste 🙂 I was just thankful it made it into work in one after it took a slight whoops-a-daisy in the car on the way in!

      Hey! I’ve just made this cake and although delicious, I’ve stuffed up somewhere. When I added the Mars mix to the cream mix, it immediately went into solid chunks and didn’t mix properly. The cream mix was semi room temp and the Mars was soft but not runny, what can I do next time? Also could you swap the Mars bar for any other type of candy bar? Thanks Sarah, Perth

        Mine started to do a similar thing – I think it was having the mars bars mix too thick. Lauren will be able to give her professional advice but I will melt the mars bars to a runnier consistency next time. 🙂

        Hi Sarah,You certainly could substitute it with any flavour of chocolate bar. I would say that the Mars Bars were not yet melted enough, the mixture needs to be smooth and melted when you add it.
