1

For the Base

First up the base, crush the biscuits in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs, alternatively place them in a large bowl a crush with one end of a rolling pin. Stir in the Cocoa Powder until well combined then mix in the melted butter.

2

Put the biscuit mixture into a loose bottomed 8 inch cake tin that’s approx. 2inch deep and press to create an even base. Pop in the fridge to chill for at least 20 minutes.

3

For the Irish Cream

Next up the Vegan Irish cream (or you can use vegan Baileys if short on time), dissolve the espresso powder and cocoa powder and sugar in 1x tbsp boiling water then add the Irish whiskey, almond milk and vanilla combining well.

4

For the Filling

Now it’s time for the cheesecake filling, put the cream cheese in the bowl of a freestanding mixer or large bowl and beat with the sugar, and Vanilla Paste until smooth. Whilst mixing gradually add the oat cream and 200ml of the vegan Irish cream and mix until smooth.

5

Take out 400ml of the filling and place in a deep pan. Mix in the vege gel until dissolved and then place the pan on the hob and bring to the boil stirring constantly. Once the mixture is a boiling point it will have thickened considerably, whilst mixing the filling, pour in the hot mixture, whisking well until smooth.

6

Pour the filling over the biscuit base and place in the freezer to set overnight.

7

For the Decorations

Now let’s make the decorations, melt the Chocolate in a heatproof bowl by placing in a microwave and heating on full power in 30 second bursts, stirring in between bursts until melted.

8

Place the melted chocolate in a piping bag (alternatively use a teaspoon) and pipe/drizzle star shapes onto a flat baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper.

9

Decorate the stars with the gold decorating icing then leave thechocolate decorations to set for a couple of hours or overnight.

10

An hour before you’re ready to serve the cheesecake it’s time to make the ganache, remove the cheesecake from the freezer and take out of the tin placing on your serving plate.

11

Chop the Chocolate into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl. Put 70ml of the vegan Irish cream in a pan with the vegan butter and warm until just below boiling point then pour over the chopped chocolate. Stir the warmed chocolate mixture and stir in the icing sugar until the chocolate has melted.

12

Using about half the mixture, spread over the top of the cheesecake in a thin layer. Leave the rest of the mixture to cool and thicken slightly then whip until light and fluffy with an electric hand mixer. Put the mixture into a piping bag with an open star nozzle then pipe swirls on top of the cheesecake.

13

Carefully peel off the set chocolate stars from the greaseproof and pop onto the swirls of ganache. Serve the cheesecake chilled.

Is agar agar the same as Vege-Gel? ›

Vege-gel is a commercially created product made for cullinary use. It is a mixture of carageenan, locust bean gum and other substances. The gum helps to stop the gel being so brittle, and stops the prepared gel from 'weeping' - an important difference from the pure agar agar powder.

Does Vege-Gel expire? ›

If selected product is out of stock: expect a delivery time of 10 working days. Expiration date: generally speaking, all products have an expiration date of 1 to 3 years, depending on the product and batch in stock.

Is there a vegan gelatin? ›

Cornstarch and agar agar (an algae-based product found in the seaweed section) have both been used to successfully replicate these tricky textures. Like gelatin, both cornstarch and agar agar are activated when combined with a hot liquid.

Can kids have Bailey's cheesecake? ›

Yes, they can. Desserts which contain alcohol usually contain such small amounts of it that it doesn't have any influence.

Can you put Baileys in cheesecake? ›

What is the ratio of gelatin to gel? ›

For very hard, firm gels it can be used in ratios of upwards of 6% but the typical range for firmer gels is 1% to 3%. If you are using sheet gelatin you will use 0.27-0.55 sheets per 100 grams of liquid for soft gels and 0.55 to 1.6 sheets per 100 grams of liquid for firmer gels.

Can I use Vege-Gel instead of agar agar? ›

To use vegegel all you need to do is whisk it into a warm liquid. The outcome is often brittle, use agar agar when it's ok to have a brittle texture, like dipping a frozen sphere of mousse into agar set jelly. Or alternatively use agar agar to make a fluid gel. Those gels are what a lot of chefs use to look cool.

Can I use gelling powder instead of gelatin? ›

Generally, one tablespoon of agar agar flakes or one teaspoon of agar agar powder can replace one packet of gelatin. Mix with cold liquid: Unlike gelatin, agar agar requires a brief simmer to activate its gelling properties. However, you should always mix agar agar with cold liquid first.

What is the best substitute for gelatin? ›

What can you use as a substitute for gelatin: Agar Agar, Kudzu, Pectin, Cornstarch, Vegan Jel, Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum, Arrowroot or Tapioca Starch, Instant Clear Gel, and Carrageenan. Each of these options is worth exploring and experimenting with since they do work wonders in many recipes!
