What is Snickers Cheesecake

A layered loaf tin cheesecake on a biscuit and chocolate base, with a fromage frais and mascarpone cream, caramel and roasted peanuts.

How to make Snickers Cheesecake

Tips from the cook

  • Blitz the biscuits and chocolate fine, so the base presses firmly into the tin.
  • Stir the caramel until thick, and let it cool a little before spooning it on, so it does not melt the filling.
  • Alternate dollops of filling and caramel for a marbled look.
  • Let the ganache cool slightly before pouring it on, so it sets smooth.

Snickers Cheesecake substitutions

Out of something, or cooking around an allergy. Each swap was checked against a source.

Cream2 options
  • Oat cooking cream (gluten-free labelled) or soy cream 1:1

    Curdles if boiled hard.

    Still contains soy.

  • Coconut cream (thick top of a can) 1:1

    Coconut flavour.

Butter2 options
  • Vegan/dairy-free butter block 1:1 by weight

    Soft tub margarine fails in pastry and cheesecake base.

  • Olive oil use about 3/4 as much by volume

    Not for creaming or pastry; base goes oily.

Roasted peanuts2 options
  • Toasted sunflower seeds 1:1 by weight

    Less crunch.

  • Toasted cashews 1:1 by weight (tree nut)

    Tree nut.

    Still contains tree nuts.

Milk chocolate1 option
  • Dark chocolate (label must show no milk) plus coconut milk powder from a truly dairy-free brand 80 g dark chocolate per 100 g milk chocolate, plus 1 tbsp coconut milk powder

    Page gives this mix with dairy milk powder; most coconut powders contain caseinate (dairy); dark chocolate often has soy lecithin; strong coconut taste.

    Still contains soy.

Plain biscuits1 option
  • Gluten-free digestive-style biscuits 1:1 by weight

    May need a bit more butter.

Fromage frais1 option
  • Thick unsweetened Greek yoghurt 1:1

    Add to hot dishes at the last minute so it does not curdle; still dairy, so no use for a dairy allergy.

    Still contains dairy.

Mascarpone2 options
  • Full-fat cream cheese loosened with a splash of milk or cream 1:1 by weight

    Slightly tangier.

    Still contains dairy.

  • Plant-based cream cheese (check label) 1:1

    Many are nut- or soy-based; can split when boiled.

    Still contains soy and tree nuts.
