Chocolate Orange Cheesecake
It’s not Terry’s, it’s yours. Super delicious 'no bake' chocolate orange cheesecake.
Print Pin RateServings: 8
Ingredients
- 200 g Bourbon biscuits
- 100 g butter
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 200 g Terry’s chocolate oranges Plus extra for garnish
- 200 ml double cream
- 340 g cream cheese
- 150 g golden caster sugar
- 1 Orange for zest Optional
Instructions
- Use a food processor to blitz the biscuits into a fine crumb. Alternatively you can place them into a freezer bag and smash with a rolling pin.
- Melt the butter over a medium heat, then pour it into the biscuit crumb and mix well until it resembles wet sand.
- Press it into the bottom of an 18 or 20cm baking tin. Place in the fridge while you get the cheesecake filling ready.
- Melt the chocolate oranges in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, then set aside to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, add the cream cheese and the golden caster sugar into a large mixing bowl and beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the double cream to soft peaks, then fold through the cocoa powder.
- Now add the cream/cocoa into the cream cheese and mix well. Pour in the melted chocolate and beat until it is well combined.
- Spoon it over the cheesecake base, and smooth it over with the back of a spoon.
- Decorate with 8 segments of Terrys Chocolate Orange. Then pop it into the fridge to set for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight. If you're in a rush you can speed it up by popping it in the freezer for a couple of hours.
- I like to add the zest of an orange over the top, but this is completely optional. Cut it into portions and enjoy!

Can you freeze this cheesecake?
Yes 🙂
I’ve just made this and it was delicious. I’m just wondering if it could be made in advance and frozen.
Glad you liked it, yes you can freeze it 🙂
Brilliant fool proof recipe. Loved by choc orange enthusiasts!
How long will this last in the fridge if I want to make it ahead of time for Christmas?
it will be fine for 3-4 days.
Excellent showstopper, made twice, family love it
Hi there I can’t get the cream cheese to work. Which one did you use please ?
Full fat philadelphia.
Did a trial run for Christmas, easy to do and family loved it. Definitely do this for Christmas. Sure winner 👌👌
I made this at Christmas and it went down a treat with everybody! So easy to make but so tasty too!!
Hi,
Should I use Terry’s milk chocolate orange or Terry’s dark chocolate orange for this cheesecake?……. Which one did you use?…..
Thank you & best wishes
Either is fine, although I would always use the dark one. The bitterness is diluted by the other ingredients.
Thank you, I will make it with the dark as suggested. I have just bought your book – Speedy Weeknight Meals & we have already done 2 recipes from it both were easy to do & delicious. Great book & delicious recipes! 👍
The ULTIMATE cheesecake! Impressive yet simple to make!
This is so easy to make and tastes soooo good!
Such a simple and delicious cheesecake recipe! The flavour is gorgeous but I’ve also used this same recipe with mint choc instead of orange choc and it’s gorgeous as well!
I’ve made this a few times and also substituted the orange for mint, firm favourite with my family it’s the absolute best cheesecake recipe ever!
