Cooking Instructions

For the crust:
2 x 230 g packets ginger biscuits
½ cup melted butter

For the filling:
2 x 200 g tubs cream cheese 
1 cup sour cream
1 x 397 g can condensed milk
6 T freshly squeezed lemon juice and zest
4 free range eggs, lightly beaten

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C and grease a 24 cm loose-bottomed cake tin with butter. 
  2. Process the ginger biscuits until fine, then add the melted butter. Pulse until the crumbs start to stick together. 
  3. Use a silicone scraper to line the base and sides of the tin with the crumbs, pushing the crumbs right to the top edge of the tin. Chill until needed. 
  4. To make the filling, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, condensed milk and lemon juice and zest until smooth. Add the eggs and mix through. Chill for 1 hour. 
  5. Pour the mixture into the crust and spread evenly. Bake for 1 hour in the centre of the oven. Turn the oven off, open the door and allow to cool in the oven.
