- 1 Start by melting the butter in a pan. Place the digestive biscuits in a large food bag. Seal the bag and crush the biscuits to fine crumbs, using a rolling pin.
- 2 Add in the biscuit crumbs to the butter and mix thoroughly. Press this mix into four lightly oiled 10cm/4" loose-bottom tart tins.
- 3 Put the cream cheese, chestnut puree, icing sugar and orange liqueur in a food processor and whiz till smooth.
- 4 Grate the orange, add in the rind to the chestnut mix and whiz again. Spoon this mix into the biscuit bases and smooth over the surface with a palette knife. Transfer to the fridge to cold.
- 5 Break the chocolate into a small bowl. Add in the lowfat milk, place the bowl on a pan of simmering water and cook for two min or possibly till melted.
- 6 While the chocolate is melting, whip up the double cream to soft peaks and mix in the orange liqueur. Spoon into a piping bag fitted with a plain nozzle.
- 7 Remove the chocolate bowl from the heat and stir well. Remove the cheesecake from the fridge.
- 8 Spoon over tsp. of the melted chocolate. Using a skewer, swirl and marble it into the cream filling mix.
- 9 Carefully remove the cheesecake from the tin (the cheesecake may have to be kept on its base as it is too fragile).
- 10 Place onto the serving plate. Pipe the cream around the edge of the cheesecake. Decorate with marron glaces. Drizzle a little more chocolate sauce around the plate.
