Toblerone Cheesecake
Toblerone Cheesecake has always been the most popular cheesecake when I put it on menus. A lot of people have asked me to post the recipe so here it is.
It is really quick to make, doesn’t use gelatine and can be made in a matter of minutes. It is also really cheap if you use the supermarkets own brand of cream cheese. I don’t know why anyone would use the expensive brands.
I got the Toblerone in Tesco but it was really expensive as they only had the really big one which was almost 8 euro. I have seen it for sale in Dealz and of course, every airport in the world sells them so keep your eye out for the bargains.
Ingredients
Choose plain or chocolate.
Instructions
You will need – 1 food processor, 1 spatula, 1 23cm springform tin, 1 pot, 1 wooden spoon, 1 scissors and baking parchment.
Hi Liam
When making this do you use maple syrup AND vanilla essence or just ONE of the above?
Thanks a mill
Just one Paula. I edited it there now. I had or in originally but it must have got lost in the site changeover.
Hi Liam – this looks lovely though is it a bit soft? Would it benefit by my putting a little leaf gelatine in or would that mess it up do you think? Thanks. Ger
You can use gelatine if you like Ger. I prefer not to as I don’t like the consistency so wouldn’t eat it. I loved this as it was creamy and light which matched the heavy base very well
What if I don’t have a springform tin?
You can make it in a cake tin but will have to scoop it out. You will pick up a springform tin for around €7
Sinead I use clingfilm to line the tin as I dont have a springform tin. Just remember to leave enough over the sies of the tin so as you can use it to life the cheesecake out.oxo
I don’t have a springform tin so I line a regular round tin with grease proof paper, and the cheesecake just lifts out.
Would you have a particular type of food processor you’d recommend for multi purpose use such as this? Recipe looks delicious I can’t wait to try!
Hi Roisin. I am a big fan of kenwood stuff as I find it lasts and gets the job done. You can get cheap food processors that won’t last long as the motors burn out or the plastic bowl breaks easily.
I would recommend this one from D.I.D which is on special offer at the moment It is sturdy and powerful so will last. They also do it in black but it is 20 euro more.

Thanks so much Liam!
Do I need to whip the cream before adding to the mix? thanks
You can though it is not necessary, I didn’t as it whips as soon as you add it to the cream cheese in the food processor. There is no skill in this, it happens naturally. If you are worried then whip the cream and fold it into the cream cheese mix.
Which own brand soft cheese have you used? I am always nervous to switch
I used Tesco. Some people have been reporting that Lidl and Aldi own brands aren’t setting for them.
I used Lidl and Tesco cream cheese dozens of times never failed to set. Double cream make a denser topping and single makes it lighter. I prefer single but all the family prefer double
Could you put a drop of baileys instead of the vanilla ?
Hi Liam I have been making yhis for a gew years and LOVE it. The only thing I do different is I melt the toblerone and let it slightly cool then mix in with the cream cheese/cream mix. Then once its set I drizzle a little more melted toblerone on the top. Always devoured in my home.
Can u put in the freezer to set quicker ?
It will form ice crystals if you leave it too long to start it in the freezer for half an hour then poo it into the fridge.
Hi Liam, this has now become my go-to dessert. I am planning to make one for Christmas Day and one for Stephens day (two different groups!). Because of the cream in it, how far in advance would you suggest I make it?
It looks like a fabulous recipe. Thank you. I’ve got an Bosch food processor. Which part will I use for the Toblerone to crumb?
