  1. Finely crush the biscuits in a food processor or with a rolling pin.

  4. In a separate bowl beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Fold in the chocolate and orange zest and stir until well combined.
  5. In a large bowl, whip the cream until it just holds its shape and then fold into the cheesecake base.
  6. Spoon the cheesecake mixture on top of the chilled biscuit base, level and chill until set – at least 3 hours.
  7. To serve, remove cheesecake from tin and transfer to a serving plate or cake stand.
