Angel Delight “Cheesecake”

When my brother and I were kids one of our favourite puddings for some reason was Angel Delight. Our mum used to come up with ways to make it a bit more exciting rather than just always having it on its own. Various concoctions followed with fruit cream, pastry... But the one that I loved the most was with a biscuit base - a bit like a cheesecake.

It was a quick and easy pudding that always went down well, so having a lazy weekend to myself I decided to make it up myself. It’s not the prettiest of puddings, but it still tasted as good as it did 20 plus years ago!
