Cook’s notes:
- use plain tea biscuits instead of ginger if you prefer.
- make the cheesecake the night before to save time.
- if you would prefer one large cheesecake simply make it in a greased 20cm pie dish rather than four ramekins.
MINI LEMON AND GINGER CHEESECAKES
- Servings: 4

- 60g butter, melted

1.) Place the crushed ginger biscuits and melted butter together in a small bowl and mix until well combined. Divide the mixture between four glasses or large ramekins and press down lightly. Pop the glasses in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
2.) Place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl and whisk to soften. Add the condensed milk and whisk until the mixture is smooth. Add the lemon juice and mix again until everything is combined.
3.) Divide the filling between the glasses. Pop them in the fridge until set. Before serving top each cheesecake with a heaped teaspoon of lemon curd and some fresh berries.
