Baileys Chocolate Cheesecake
Baileys recently asked me to develop a recipe using their famous whisky and cream liqueur. With the summer barbecue season nearly here I decided to make an indulgent creamy baked cheesecake to feed a crowd. This can be made a day in advance but leave off the cocoa powder and crushed Flake until just before serving.
