Cheesecake base ideas

Most cheesecakes start with a classic biscuit base, but there’s plenty of room to get creative and turn simple cheesecake recipes into showstoppers:

• Oat biscuits or shortbread: crush and mix with melted butter, perfect for fruit or vanilla cheesecakes.

• Ginger snaps: blend with butter for a spiced base that pairs well with citrus or caramel cheesecake desserts.

• Chocolate cookies: use chocolate wafers or sandwich cookies for a rich base that complements dark or creamy flavours.

• Nut crusts: blitz almonds, pecans, or hazelnuts with honey and butter for a crunchy crust.

• Granola: mix with butter or syrup and press into the tin, great for no-bake cheesecake recipes.

• Coconut or oat-based blends: combine with coconut oil and lightly toast, great for tropical or berry-based fillings.
