Gin, raspberry and ginger cheesecakes

These mini cheesecakes are the perfect bitesize dessert. Made with a ginger nut biscuit base and a fruity filling of raspberries, soft cheese and Eden Mill Amarone Red Wine Cask Aged Gin, they are an indulgent treat for gin lovers looking for something different. 

Preparation time: 45 minutes 

Makes: 8 

Ingredients 

FOR THE BASE:

225g ginger nut biscuits 

75g unsalted butter, melted 

FOR THE FILLING:

150g raspberries 

75g caster sugar, plus 2 tbsp 

100g full fat soft cheese 

50ml Eden Mill Amarone Red Wine Cask Aged Gin 

100ml double cream 

TO SERVE:

16 raspberries 

Directions: 

Grease 8 holes in a muffin tin and line with a strip of baking parchment. A silicone muffin tray makes it easier to remove from the moulds.  

Place the biscuits in a large sandwich bag and use a rolling pin to bash them until they form rough crumbs. Tip into a bowl and mix in the melted butter until all of the crumbs are coated.  

Divide equally between the 8 holes of the muffin tin and push firmly into the base and sides with the back of a spoon. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes until firm. 

To make the filling, place the raspberries in a small pan and sprinkle over the 2 tablespoons of sugar. Heat gently for a few of minutes until softened and the syrup is starting to thicken. 

Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely then press through a sieve. Discard the seeds and set the rest aside. 

Put the soft cheese in a large bowl and beat with the remaining sugar, gin and half of the raspberry mix. Whisk the cream until thickened, then carefully fold this into the soft cheese mixture. 

Spoon the mixture into each of the bases. Chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours. 

When you are ready to serve, drizzle with the raspberry sauce and top with a couple of raspberries.

Those of you who have followed Eden Mill for a few years will be familiar with our popular range of Cask Aged Gins.

We’re delighted to be bringing them back to the portfolio, with a new look and two new expressions - a Sauternes Cask Aged Gin and a Spanish and French Red Wine Cask Aged Gin. 

The Red Wine Cask Aged Gin has been matured in a combination of French Bordeaux and Spanish Rioja casks, giving our spirit a rounded palate with juicy berry notes and warming undertone of oak spice and stone fruits. It’s excellent in a simple tonic serve – but this gin truly comes to life when mixed in equal parts with vermouth and Campari; built for a Negroni, you can really taste the difference.

The duo is perfect for every serve and occasion, so why not pick them both up for the gin aficionado in your life?
