Steps:
- Gently melt the butter in a small pan over a low heat. Place the digestives in a plastic bag and crush to fine crumbs using a rolling pin; you can also do this in a food processor. Tip them into the pan with the melted butter, stir to coat, then transfer to a 20cm springform cake tin (9cm deep). Using the back of a spoon, press them into the base, making sure you seal the edges. Place in the fridge while you prepare the next stage.
- If using leaf gelatine, place in a bowl, cover with cold water, soak for 5 mins, then drain. Pour 3 tbsp boiling water over the soaked gelatine and stir to dissolve. If using a sachet, see Know-how, below.
- Place the crème fraîche in a small pan with the muscovado sugars and a pinch of sea salt, then gently heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture liquefies and the sugar has dissolved. Give the mixture a quick whisk to get rid of any lumps. It should be warm, roughly the same temperature as the gelatine solution. Stir the gelatine and vanilla extract into the crème fraîche mixture, transfer to a bowl and cool.
- Place the ricotta in a food processor and whizz until smooth, then add the crème fraîche mixture and whizz again. Pour this on top of the cheesecake base. Cover with cling film and chill overnight.
- Run a knife around the sides of the tin, then undo the clip and remove it. Transfer to a plate or leave the cheesecake on the base for ease of serving. Pile the fudge flakes in the centre and dust with icing sugar. Cover and chill until required.

CREME FRAICHE CHEESECAKE WITH SOUR CHERRY TOPPING
This cheesecake is a cross between the New York style cheesecake, rich with cream cheese, and the light and airy cheesecakes made with ricotta or farmer cheese. For best results start with room temperature ingredients to get the creamiest texture. You can change the fruit topping to suit whatever is in season. Original recipe appeared in the NY Times by Melissa Clark.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F; wrap the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with aluminum foil and place pan on a baking sheet.
- Beat the cream cheese and goat cheese until smooth; add sugar and continue to beat until sugar is incorporated.
- Beat in creme fraiche, vanilla, and pepper; beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping the sides of the bowl between each addition.
- Pour mixture into prepared pan and bake for 10 minutes; reduce temperature to 250 degrees F and bake until just set, 45 to 60 minutes (cake will jiggle in the middle).
- Transfer to wire rack to cool.
- Prepare the cherries while the cake is cooling by heating a saucepan over medium heat; add sugar and 2/3 cup water and cook until sugar dissolves and syrup thickens, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Add in the cherries and balsamic vinegar, stirring occasionally, until cherries soften and release their juices, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove cherries to a bowl with a slotted spoon and continue to cook liquid until reduced by half, about 10 minutes; remove from heat and return cherries and any accumulated juices.
- Loosen the cake by running a knife around the edge, then unmold; serve with cherry topping.

CRèME FRAîCHE CHEESECAKE WITH SOUR CHERRIES
This light cheesecake bridges the gap between those who love their cheesecakes tall and dense, straight out of Lindy's, and others who prefer a daintier cake, made airy with farmer's cheese or ricotta. Here, you'll use cream cheese, goat cheese and crème fraîche to concoct a light, fluffy cheesecake that isn't too sweet, making it the perfect platform to show off a bunch of summer cherries, simmered in sugar. Or you could skip the cherries and eat it plain, or drizzle over some honey and toasted nuts.

Steps:
- To make the cheesecake, heat the oven to 325 degrees. Wrap the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with foil and place on a baking sheet.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and goat cheese until very smooth. Add the sugar and continue beating until no lumps remain. Beat in the crème fraîche, vanilla and pepper. Beat in the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions, and beat until combined.
- Pour the mixture into the pan and bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 250 degrees and bake until the cake is just set (it will still wobble a little in the middle), 45 to 60 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cheesecake is cooling, make the cherry topping. Pour the sugar and 2/3 cup water in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the sugar has dissolved and the syrup has thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the cherries and balsamic vinegar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cherries soften and release their juices, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cherries to a bowl. Continue cooking the liquid in the pan until the sauce reduces by half, about 10 minutes. Take the pan off the heat and stir the cherries and any juice from the bowl back in.
- Run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cake from the pan before unmolding and serving with the cherry topping.

- Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly coat an 8½ x 4½” loaf pan with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on long sides.

Beat until very light and fluffy, 3 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and add eggs one at a time, beating to blend between additions. Add cream and lemon juice and beat just until combined. Scrape batter into loaf pan; smooth top.
- Place loaf pan in a baking dish or roasting pan and add warm water to reach halfway up sides of loaf pan. Bake cheesecake until set around edges but center jiggles slightly, 45–55 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cheesecake cool completely in pan. Cover and chill overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350°. Toast walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing occasionally, until slightly darkened and fragrant, 8–10 minutes; let cool, then finely chop.
