By @crishfish<br />

Cooking difficulty: easy<br />

35 mins (preparation) + 4 – 5 hours (chill)<br />

Serves 8 – 10<br />

Maker’s note<br />

“Do you ever go to a patisserie and wish you could buy the whole store? Don’t you<br />

worry; you’re not the only one! This recipe combines my everlasting love for<br />

cheesecake, tarts and everything Snickers related.”<br />

“I created this recipe by being inspired<br />

by the crazy creativity Melbourne<br />

chefs seem to possess. Because if<br />

you’re not eating some sort of funky<br />

fusion in Melbourne, then you’re really<br />

not doing Melbourne right, man!”<br />

Ingredients<br />

Method<br />

1 ½ cups pretzels (store–bought)<br />

¾ cups (or around 5 fingers) shortbread<br />

(either homemade or store–bought)<br />

1 tbs milk powder<br />

2 tbs cocoa powder<br />

1 tbs brown sugar<br />

50g Snickers ‘Pods’<br />

50g butter, melted<br />

125g cream cheese<br />

200g condensed milk<br />

100g dark chocolate, melted<br />

2 tbs smooth peanut butter<br />

1 shot espresso<br />

1 tsp vanilla<br />

170g mascarpone<br />

1 tsp gelatine, dissolved in ¼ cup<br />

boiling water<br />

Preheat oven to 170°C.<br />

Process pretzels, shortbread, milk powder, cocoa powder, brown sugar, and Snickers<br />

Pods into a fine crumb and place into a medium bowl. Add melted butter, and using a<br />

wooden spoon mix until you have a ‘wet sand’ consistency.<br />

Line a medium sized tart tin (24cm) with the crumb base. Let it to toast in the oven for<br />

8 to 10 minutes. Allow it to rest and cool in its case.<br />

Using a hand–held or stand mixer, mix the cream cheese and condensed milk on<br />

medium speed until smooth.<br />

Add in the melted chocolate, peanut butter, espresso and vanilla and mix until<br />

ingredients have combined evenly.<br />

On low speed, mix in the mascarpone and gelatine until just combined. Try to<br />

avoid overbeating!<br />

Fill the tart tin with cheesecake mix. This is where you can be creative and add your<br />

favourite toppings! I added dusted chopped Snickers bars, homemade peanut brittle<br />

and some chocolate biscuits (and maybe just a sneaky drizzle of chocolate).<br />

Refrigerate the cheesecake tart for 4 hours or until set. Enjoy this chocolatey,<br />

peanuty, cheesecakey goodness!<br />
