Ingredients
Method
- Toast 30 g shredded coconut at 180°C (350°F) for 5-7 minutes. Crush 150 g biscuits, mix with 75 g melted butter and toasted coconut, press into a 20 cm (8-inch) springform pan, and chill.
- Whip 200 ml cold heavy cream to soft peaks, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Beat 600 g cream cheese with 120 g powdered sugar until smooth. Mix in 1 tsp vanilla, lime zest and juice, then 200 ml coconut cream.
- Fold the whipped cream gently into the cream cheese mixture, pour over the crust, smooth the top, and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
- Run a knife around the edge, remove the springform ring, slice, and serve cold.
Notes
Chilling time is not included in the prep total; the cheesecake needs at least 4 hours to set, but overnight is better. The lime is optional and can be swapped with lemon juice or omitted. For best results, use the thick, solid part from a can of full-fat coconut cream that’s been chilled overnight.
