Marmite Caramel & Popcorn Cheesecake
Salted caramel, eat your heart out! We’ve done one better in this recipe, adding Marmite to our cheat’s caramel, before swirling it through a deliciously creamy cheesecake bake.
Flavour fiends are in for an extra treat, too, as we’ve hidden Marmite biscuits in the base for added flavour.
Top with popcorn (yep – you heard right) plus a final drizzle of deliciously sticky caramel sauce and tuck in. Mmmm!
Marmite Caramel Cheesecake Recipe
Serves : 8-10
Cook Time : 1 hour 40 minutes + overnight set time
Ingredients
50g Marmite yeast extract biscuits
250g McVitie’s® Hobnob biscuits
100g butter
50g sweet popcorn
20g Marmite caramel popcorn
1 Tin Ready-made caramel
2 tbsp Marmite
300ml double cream
600g cream cheese
150g icing sugar
Method
- Grease and line a 23cm springform cake tin with baking paper. Crush the Marmite biscuits and Hobnobs in a food bag with a rolling pin until you get a coarse crumb, then add to a large bowl.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat, stirring regularly. Add to the biscuits and mix, and keep the saucepan aside for later. Pour the mix into the cake tin, using a spatula to smooth it into an even layer. Refrigerate the tin for 1 hour or until the base is firmly set.
- Meanwhile, warm the caramel in the reserved saucepan until melted, then whisk in the Marmite and remove from the heat. This is your Marmite caramel.
- Using an electric whisk, beat the cream cheese and icing sugar together for 1-2 min or until softened and smooth (Tip: stir through the icing sugar first with a large spoon so it doesn’t go everywhere). Once smooth, add in the double cream with one-third of the Marmite caramel and beat until fully mixed.
- Once the biscuit base is set, pour in the cheesecake filling. Drizzle one-third of the Marmite caramel and dramatic swirls with a knife. Refrigerate overnight to set.
- Remove cheesecake 30 mins before serving. Gently warm through the reserved Marmite caramel.
- Just before serving, pile on both popcorns and drizzle over the Marmite caramel. Yum!
