Honey Nougat Crackle Cheesecake

Being a massive fan of Summer Rolls and Honey Nougat Chocolate Bars I decided I wanted to bake a dessert that would turned these bars into a luscious cake.

Honey, nougat, vanilla, peanuts and coconut are all ingredients that would work fabulously with a creamy textured cake, thus cheesecake it is.

Both bars are covered with chocolate so to replicate this layer I opted to use the chocolate as the base to hold the cheesecake together. As cheesecake is creamy and missing crunch I decided on using rice bubbles for a chocolate crackle base.

A very simple no bake cheesecake that replicates the chocolate bars flavours wonderfully.

Deliciously tasty.
