Feel free to reduce the amount to suit your taste and budget. Likewise with the mini egg topping - I'll admit I went a bit "extra" and heaped over two bags.

This is a very deep cheesecake and if you wanted to, you could safely halve the filling ingredients and you'd still end up with a decent-sized cheesecake. I toyed with the idea of adding orange flavouring to the recipe but I'm glad I didn't because the mini eggs are strong enough to flavour the entire cheesecake. The eggs are bright orange in colour which transferred slightly to the cheesecake turning it into a pastel orange - very fitting for Easter. The shells are quite a bit harder than the original mini eggs. Naturally, I bought 12 bags much to the surprised looks from the cashier who must have wondered why I was going Easter crazy in January! I eventually found them in Tesco, they cost £1.00 for an 80g bag. They've already caused a bit of a sensation on social media with people desperate to get their hands on some. The mini eggs have the flavour of the chocolate orange we all know and love. I used a small amount of lemon juice because it helps the cheesecake to set, added vanilla extract for flavour and the star ingredient: chocolate orange mini eggs. This base recipe for cheesecake always sets well, is really easy and isn't a faff to make. I've used almost exactly the same cheesecake recipe as I did for my Lemon Cheesecake. The cheesecake is, of course, jam-packed with Terry's chocolate orange mini eggs, it has a Philadelphia and whipped cream filling that is thick, light and positively dreamy.
