Then, add the caster sugar and melted butter. Mix until you have a uniform wet crumb mixture.2 cups digestive biscuits or Graham crackers, 1/3 cup caster sugar, 8 tablespoons salted butter, melted
- Set the cheesecake crustPress the fine crumbs into the lined cheesecake pan. Use the back of a flat measuring cup or glass to level the crumbs and pack them in tightly.You can create a slight edge around the side of the pan if you'd like. But, it isn't necessary. Then, set the crust inside the fridge to harden for about 30 minutes.
- Make the no-bake cheesecake batterTo start, place the cream cheese, caster sugar, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Beat the ingredients until the sugar starts to dissolve and the mixture becomes fluffy. You should also have a lump-free cream cheese base.Then, add the heavy cream and whip the mixture on high. Keep mixing until the cheesecake batter becomes fluffy and can hold its shape.Finally, fold in the chopped Galaxy caramel bar and make sure it's well distributed.24 ounces full-fat cream cheese, softened at room temperature, 3/4 cup caster sugar, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, room temperature, 5 ounces Galaxy Caramel chocolate bars, chopped
- Set the cheesecakeThe next step in this Galaxy caramel cheesecake recipe is to pour the batter into your set cheesecake crust. Then, wrap the entire pan with plastic or saran wrap.Place the cheesecake inside the fridge and allow it to set for at least 6 hours. Preferably, it should be set overnight (10 hours).
- Remove the cheesecake from the panOnce your cheesecake has been set, you can remove it from the pan. Smooth the outside with a slightly heated palette knife to create a beautifully smooth surface.Place the cheesecake on a serving board or cake stand.
- Decorate your cheesecakeYou can play around with how you decorate this Galaxy caramel cheesecake recipe. We like to drizzle a generous amount of caramel and chocolate sauce over the surface.

Notes
You can make your own chocolate sauce using melted Galaxy chocolate bars. It is incredibly easy but takes more time and effort.
The same goes for the caramel sauce. There are loads of easy recipes out there. But again, they require extra effort and work.
Always use room-temperature ingredients when making a cheesecake batter. This will ensure you have a lump-free mixture that isn't overmixed. The ingredients will blend together effortlessly.
