How to Make Toffee Caramel No-Bake Cheesecake
Ingredients:
- 1 1⁄2 cups cookie crumbs (Digestive, savoiardi, or graham cracker crumbs)
- 1⁄4 cup butter, melted
- 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 3⁄4 cup powdered/icing sugar
- 3⁄4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup whole/whipping cream
- 1⁄4 cup toffee bits

Directions:
Prepare the Base: In a bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with melted butter. Mix well, then press the mixture into the bottom of a 7-8 inch springform pan. Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to set.
Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl until creamy. In another bowl, whip the cold cream until stiff peaks form. Dissolve the gelatine in milk over low heat and mix it into part of the cream cheese mixture. Fold this into the remaining mixture, then gently add the whipped cream and toffee bits.
Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled cookie base. Smooth the top and chill in the refrigerator for 4-5 hours or overnight until set.
