Ingredients
- 250g plain sweet biscuits crushed
- 125g macadamia nuts, toasted and crushed
- 50g shredded coconut, toasted
- 125g butter, melted
- 1½ cups caster sugar
- 500g cream cheese, softened
- 600ml cream
- 2T lemon myrtle leaf, ground

Directions
- In a large bowl place crushed biscuits, macadamia nuts, coconut, butter and ½ cup of the caster sugar. Mix until all ingredients are completely combined.
- In a 26cm round spring form pan press crumbs in to the bottom and up the sides to form your shell. Press firmly, you may wish to use the bottom of a glass to assist you. Place pan in the fridge to chill until your filling is ready.
- Place gelatine leaves in a bowl and cover with cold water. Allow to soften. Once softened, squeeze out excess water and place in a small saucepan, add 3T of the softening water. Over low heat melt the gelatine. Take off heat and set aside
- Place cream cheese, sugar, lemon myrtle and vanilla in the bowl for your stand mixer. If not using a stand mixer place in a large bowl. Beat until mixture is very smooth and creamy.
- Slowly add the, now cooled (but still liquid), gelatine to the cream cheese mixture, turn the speed up and keep beating on high for 5 minutes. Reduce speed and slowly pour in the cream. Continue to beat until well combined.
- Remove shell from the fridge and pour in cream cheese mixture. Place cheesecake in fridge to chill and set. Once set it is ready to serve.
