75g butter, melted

200g plain chocolate
200g milk chocolate
55g golden caster sugar
350g cream cheese
300 ml double cream, whipped

Butter the base and sides of a springform cake tin.
Crush the cookies in a bag with a rolling pin. Place the butter in a saucepan and gently heat until butter just melts. Turn off the heat and stir in the crushed cookies.
Press the mixture into the base of the tin and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Melt the plain and milk chocolate together and stir to combine.
Place the sugar and cream cheese in a mixing bowl and beat until smooth.
Fold in the whipped cream, the chocolate and then the Irish cream.
Spoon the filling over the base and smooth the surface. Chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours.
Transfer to a plate and slice to serve.

This can be made the day before and kept in the fridge overnight.

It can be served with a tsp Irish cream (see pic) or with a dusting of icing sugar, or strawberries and crème fraiche.
