Ingredients

250 g digestive biscuits, crushed
80 g butter
60 g sugar
200 g dark chocolate
1 tbsp coarsely ground coffee
1 × 300 g tub soft cheese
2 tbsp icing sugar
Chocolate, grated

Method

Melt the butter and stir in the granulated sugar and crushed digestives. Press the mixture firmly into a 10–15cm loose-bottomed cake tin and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over barely simmering water, keeping the bowl clear of the water. Stir in the ground coffee.
Beat the soft cheese with the icing sugar, then fold in the chocolate mixture. Spread over the chilled base and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Finish with grated chocolate before serving.
