Instructions

Make graham crumble
1
  • Add 2 tbsp butter to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until melted, 10-15 sec.
  • Add graham cracker crumbs, 2 tsp sugar and a pinch of salt, then stir until mixture is combined and has the appearance of wet sand.
  • Divide graham cracker mixture evenly between four unlined muffin tin cups. Press mixture firmly down into the bottom of each cup. (TIP: Use the bottom of a 1/3 cup measuring cup to press the graham cracker mixture into the muffin tin.)
  • Place muffin tin in the freezer for 10 mins.
Make white chocolate filling
2
  • Add white chocolate to a small pot over medium-low heat. Cook stirring constantly until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth and glossy, 2-3 min. (TIP: You can also melt the chocolate in the microwave if you prefer!)
  • Remove the pot from heat and place in the fridge to cool slightly, 5 min.
  • Using a vegetable peeler, peel slices of lemon skin, then finely slice. Juice lemon.
  • Add cream cheese, heavy cream and 1 tbsp lemon juice to another medium bowl. Beat using an electric mixer or whisk until until soft peaks form, 3-4 min.
  • When chocolate mixture has cooled, add to the cream mixture and beat until incorporated, 1 min.
  • Divide cheesecake mixture evenly between graham cracker bases.
  • Place in the fridge until firm, 2-3 hr.
Candy lemon peel
3
  • Add remaining sugar, remaining lemon juice and 1/2 cup water to another small pot.
  • Bring to a simmer of medium-high.
  • Once simmering, add lemon peel and reduce heat to medium. Continue to simmer uncovered until sugar mixture has reduced slightly, 5-6 min.
  • Remove pot from heat and let stand for 5 min.
  • Drain lemon peel using a fine mesh strainer, then transfer to a plate. (TIP: You've just made lemon simple syrup! Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to two weeks and use in drinks, to flavour cakes and other creations!)
  • Let candied peel sit at room temperature until cheesecakes are done.
Finish and serve
4
  • Carefully run a sharp knife around the edges of the muffin tin cups to loosen cheesecakes.
  • Remove cheesecakes from the tin and transfer to plates.
  • Sprinkle candied lemon peel over top.
