Light Philadelphia with Cadbury milk chocolate – Chocolate Philadelphia
I knew I’d like the new chocolate Philadelphia before I tried it as I absolutely LOVE chocolate cheesecake – and yep, that’s pretty much what it tastes like.
So, this week I got out my trusty blender and made a chocolate cheesecake which is, if I do say so myself, abso-flippin-lutely gorgeous! It’s also vegetarian – no gelatine needed.
Here’s how to make it…
Ingredients
- 100g digestive biscuit
- 35g unsalted butter
- 100ml double cream
- 480g chocolate Philadelphia
- 2 tsp sugar (1tsp for the biscuit, 1tsp for the filling)
- 2 well beaten eggs
- 20g plain flour
- Icing sugar for dusting, if desired
Instructions
- Set the oven to Gas Mark 6 (200C)
- Whiz up the biscuits with the sugar until sandy
- Pour in the melted butter while still whizzing
- Empty the mixture into a large, round, spring form tin
- Press down with the back of a spoon til even and firm
- Cook in the oven for just 5 minutes
- Take it out the oven and set it aside
- Turn the oven down to Gas Mark 3 (170C)
- Put the chocolate Philadelphia and sugar into the blender and start whizzing at full speed
- While still whizzing, pour in the eggs bit by bit, then add the flour and cream
- Blend until it’s lump-free
- Pour the mixture on top of the biscuit base and bake in the oven for 45 minutes to an hour until it’s well-cooked at the edges and firm but slightly wobbly in the middle
- Turn off the oven and leave the door ajar for another 45 minutes to an hour
- Take out the oven, run a knife round the edges and chill in the fridge for and hour (or as long as you can stand to wait
The result is a rich (but not too rich) chocolate cheesecake with a thin base, cakey edges and an almost fudgy middle. Truly yummy.
You can serve it a few ways. I like it plain with a glass of wine, or you might like it with a coffee or even dusted with icing sugar and served with lightly whipped double cream and raspberry sauce (made by heating one part water with one part seedless raspberry jam).
Enjoy!

I love how rich and chocolatey it looks! Have got hold of a few cheap tubs of Philadelphia with Cadbury (31p each!) so am looking for recipes to use them in, will definitely give this a try!
Excellent :) Let me know how it goes.
Thank you thank you thank you! It is so freakin delicious and easy!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY! I’m SO pleased to hear it :)
I made this cheesecake to the exact recipe yesterday and it is absolutely delicious! It has a moist fudgy texture and a lovely cadbury flavour- will definitely make this one again!!
Fabulous – I’m so pleased :)
i love this cake i made it for my mummys birthday
Yay – excellent work :)
I keep seeing this Philadelphia chocolate version on offer in Tesco and I never buy it, I might now for the next shop! It looks delicious and I do have my birthday coming up… that deserves one or more cakes, no?
Several I reckon!
I made this baked cheesecake for a family party at the weekend. I must tell you that it went down an absolute storm. I had some sweet pastry left over so I used that instead of a biscuit base and I swapped the cream for milk (only because I didn’t have any) and it came out a winner. So easy too. I decorated it with raspberries and a splodge of creme fraiche on the side.
Thanks

Awesome!
I tried this on Sunday (10.06.12) and added a packet of Oreo’s, 1st attempt of making a cheesecake.
It is soo delish! Thank you for the recipe!
Ooh sounds lovely!
Just made this only had one tub of chocolate Philly tho so sued the normal one too and just added chocolate spread and cadburys coco powder and an extra spoon of sugar and used chocolate digestives it was AMAZING!! Ate it slightly warm too yummmm!!! Thanks for the recipe xD
OOh slightly warm sounds good! Will eat it quicker next time! x
Absolutely gorgeous-though I did double up the base ingredients.
:) glad it worked. Thanks for commenting.
I’ve put in the oven cant wait to try it and as its easter I’m goin to put mini eggs on the top x
That’s a great idea! :)
I have made my Cheesecake using your recipe! It’s in the fridge stage…here’s hoping it tastes good and impresses my Girlfriend when she comes for dinner tomorrow! I’m really happy with how it looks and how easy it was – Thanks :)
I hope she enjoyed it! :)
YUM am def going to try this!!
Yay :)
I’ve just made a chocolate philly cheesecake too…mine isn’t a baked one, I’ve never tried a baked one…it looks like a torte…lovely!
Sounds good – I’m veggie so can’t use gelatine so baked is the only way I know to make it! :)
there’s no gelatine in mine either, you should give it a go…it was delicious!
Ooh – Chocolate Philadelphia? Must try that. And the recipe looks gorgeous, too.
Thanks, yes chocolate Philly is genuinely tasty. I’ve started having it on granary toast in the morning. Lovely!
Is the split of sugar 50/50 in biscuit and cheese? Thanks!
Yes :)
Can you please confirm the quantities of vanilla seeds and extract as can’t see them in the recipe? Many thanks!
Oh sorry that’s a mistake.You don’t need vanilla for this recipe. Have corrected. Should just say: “While still whizzing, pour in the eggs bit by bit, then add the flour and cream”
YUM!!! I wonder if chocolate cream cheese will ever make it to Croatia?!
Ooh I’ll ask them! By the way, your jewellery is about the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. I WILL be ordering a ring soon. Too lovely not to.
OMG I am soooo trying this!! x

Ooh come back and post pics if you do!
Now that looks truly delicious! x
Thanks :)
Ooo hadn’t even realised there was a chocolate Philli. I’m intrigued, to me it’s looks so wrong, but when it’s in a cheesecake recipe…mmm looks yummy!
It is honestly really good and I should know – I ate a LOT of it ;)
This looks AMAZING! Going to try this one for sure, nom nom nom…
Brilliant :) hope you enjoy x
Great post!! I am looking forward to trying the Cadbury version…When I was in Italy I had a tub of Chocolate Philli but it was Milka instead of Cadbury. Nice on toast too :)
Ah yes that was mentioned at the event. It would be interesting to try the Milka one as this version has a very distinctive Cadbury taste.
Hi i made this cake for my mummys birthday iam only nine years old my mummy says iam a little chef the cake tased lovely thx!!!
