Equipment You’ll Need

To make this cheesecake, you’ll need:

8-inch springform tin – Perfect for shaping and easy removal.
Mixing bowls – For the base and filling.
Hand whisk or electric mixer – To whip the cream and combine the filling.
Spatula or metal spoons – For smoothing each layer.
Microwave-safe bowl or jug – To melt the chocolate for the ganache.
Parchment paper – For easy release from the tin.

Tips for the Perfect No-Bake Cheesecake

Let It Set Properly: Always chill your cheesecake for at least 6 hours, but overnight is best for the perfect texture.
Keep It Cool: Store the cheesecake in the fridge until you’re ready to serve. Warm rooms can melt the layers.
Layer Carefully: Take your time spreading each layer to ensure a clean, professional finish.

Ingredients for No-Bake Twix Cheesecake

For the Base:

25.5 mini Twix fingers (about 6.8 oz)
300 g shortbread biscuits, crushed (2 ½ cups)
80 g salted or unsalted butter, melted (5 ½ tbsp)

For the Cheesecake:

250 ml double cream, cold (1 cup heavy whipping cream)
500 g cream cheese, room temperature (2 cups)
100 g thick ready-made caramel (⅓ cup store-bought thick caramel)
120 g icing sugar (1 cup powdered sugar)

For the Topping:

120 g thick ready-made caramel (⅓ cup store-bought thick caramel)
120 g milk chocolate, broken into pieces (¾ cup)
80 ml double cream (⅓ cup heavy whipping cream)

How to Make No-Bake Twix Cheesecake

Step 1: Add the Twix Bars

Place an 8-inch circular piece of parchment/baking paper in the bottom of your tin. Stand the mini Twix fingers vertically around the edge of the tin side-by-side, laying them gently against the edge of the tin. Be careful not to knock them as you’re placing them down, as they may fall down like dominoes!

Step 2: Prepare the Cheesecake Base

Crush the shortbread biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.

Mix the biscuit crumbs with melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Carefully scoop this into the middle of your tin, without knocking down the Twix fingers! Press the down base firmly ensuring an even layer, then place the tin in the fridge to chill while you prepare the filling.

Step 3: Create the Cheesecake Filling

In a large mixing bowl, whip the cold double cream until it holds stiff peaks. Set aside.

In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, icing sugar, and thick caramel together until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped cream, being careful not to overmix.

Spread the cheesecake filling over the chilled base, smoothing it out with a spatula.

Step 5: Make the Topping

Warm the thick caramel slightly in the microwave or over low heat until it’s smooth and pourable. Spread a thin layer of caramel over the top of the chilled cheesecake, smoothing it evenly.

In a microwave-safe bowl or jug (I prefer to use a Pyrex measuring jug), melt the milk chocolate and double cream together on a medium heat (500W) for 1 minute, stirring gently until smooth. It may need another 30 seconds in the microwave if it isn’t hot enough. Let the ganache cool slightly before pouring it over the caramel layer.

Step 4: Chill the Cheesecake

Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set completely.

Step 6: Decorate and Serve

Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform tin and transfer it to a serving plate.

Slice into 13 portions and serve chilled for the ultimate Twix-inspired dessert.

The combination of textures—from the crunchy base to the creamy filling and smooth ganache—makes every bite satisfying. Plus, the standing Twix bars add a playful, eye-catching touch that’s sure to impress.

Tips for Success

Use Full-Fat Cream Cheese: This helps the filling hold its shape and stay creamy.
Cool the Ganache: Let the ganache cool for 10–15 minutes before pouring to prevent it from melting the caramel layer.
Clean Slices: For perfect slices, make sure it’s fully set, use a warm knife, and wipe it knife clean between each cut.

Serving Suggestions

This cheesecake is rich and indulgent, so it pairs beautifully with a dollop of whipped cream or even fresh fruit.
