Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. FOR CHEESECAKE: Line base & sides of a 1 1/2 qt microwave loaf dish w/oiled greaseproof paper.
  2. Beat butter, sugar & honey. Gradually add beaten eggs. Beat in cheese, lemon rind & juice (or lime if using), sour cream, cornstarch & vanilla extract. Mix till smooth & fold in the chopped sultanas.
  3. Spoon mixture into prepared dish, cover w/greaseproof paper & cook on DEFROST for 20 minutes. Remove cover.
  4. FOR BASE: Place butter & syrup in a bowl & microwave on HIGH for 1 minute. Stir in the crushed cookie crumbs. Spoon cookie mixture on top of cheesecake & press down slightly. Allow to fully cool & then refrigerate till needed.
  5. TO SERVE: Carefully invert the cheesecake onto a chilled serving plate & remove the greaseproof paper. Decorate w/whipped cream + fruit per note below, slice thinly & serve immediately.
  6. NOTE: The pic showed sliced fruit layered in rows on both sides of the cheesecake & a row of whipped cream in the centre. Use alternating slices of strawberries & kiwi for a X-Mas theme, strawberries for a Valentine theme, kiwi for a St. Pat’s Day theme or rows of strawberries, bananas & blueberries for a 4th of July theme. I will likely use a canned spray cream right b4 serving for its ease & do without the need to use & whip the double cream. I admit I'm lazy, but I also don't think this needs the added richness, calories & fat of double cream :-).
