Ingredients
Scale
- 200 g Digestive biscuits (crushed)

Instructions
- Combine the crushed digestive biscuits with the melted butter and press into a tin to create a firm base.
- Chill in the fridge while you make the filling to ensure it sets nicely.

- Remove the chilled base from the fridge and add the cheesecake mixture on top, smoothing the surface for an even finish.
- Refrigerate for at least 240 minutes or overnight to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
- To serve, carefully remove from the tin and top with the remaining whole and halved strawberries for a beautiful presentation.
