How to make Orange and Cardamom Cheese Cake:

  1. Add butter to a large bowl and allow it to soften. Grind the biscuits to fine crumbs in a food processor.
  2. In another bowl, take the biscuits crumbs and add the softened butter to it. Mix well to combine both the ingredients properly.
  3. Take a loose bottomed cake tin, 6” in diameter, grease the base and layer the biscuit-butter mixture evenly over it.
  4. Press the mixture well on the base to help it settle down firmly. Place the cake tin in an oven preheated at 325°F. Bake for 45 minutes and then remove from the oven and keep aside to cool.
  5. Now take a large bowl, add cream cheese and beat well to soften aptly. Then add the condensed milk and mix further. Add in the cardamom powder, muscavado sugar, eggs, orange juice and rind.
