Caramilk Cheesecake is a no bake, creamy cheesecake made with Cadbury Caramilk chocolate for all those Caramilk or caramelised white chocolate lovers out there!
If you’re not from New Zealand or Australia you may not know what a Caramilk bar is. It is like Caramac or a caramelised white chocolate block. Caramilk is the Cadbury version of caramelised white chocolate and we Kiwi’s and Aussies can’t get enough!
I have one other Caramilk recipe on this blog and that is my Caramilk Slice. Let’s just say, it is a rather popular recipe!
This recipe is just as good. We take a no bake, ultra creamy and lush cheesecake and fill it with Caramilk chocolate. We have Caramilk in the base, filling and topping!
The Cheesecake
The base consists of the classic digestive biscuits and butter with the added touch of melted Caramilk chocolate.
The filling is cream cheese, icing sugar, cream, vanilla extract and melted Caramilk chocolate.
The top includes pieces of Caramilk chocolate if you desire.
If you don’t have access to Caramilk chocolate you can use any other caramelised white chocolate brand or use white chocolate instead.
This is a no bake Caramilk cheesecake and allowing this cheesecake to sit and rest for at least eight hours or overnight is absolutely necessary for it to set and the for the flavours to develop.

Cake turned out really well overall but the proportions for the base were off and it all crumbled when I took it out of the pan 🙁

Sorry to hear that! The amounts work for me but sometimes you may need more moisture so an added 20g of butter would fix this 🙂
