Ingredients
  

Crust
  • About 2 cups crushed plain biscuits 200 g
  • 3 tbsp melted butter 45 g
Yogurt filling
  • About 1 1/3 cups plain yogurt 340 g
  • About 3 cups powdered milk 200 g
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar 100 g
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Coffee-caramel topping
  • 3/4 cup 200 ml
  • 1 packet caramel cream powder about 2.6 oz / 75 g
  • 1 1/2 tsp instant coffee Nescafé

Equipment

  • Springform pan (about 8-inch/20 cm)
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Small saucepan

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper; add a parchment strip around the sides if desired.
  2. In a bowl, mix crushed biscuits and melted butter until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan in an even layer.
  4. In a clean bowl, whisk yogurt, powdered milk, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  5. Pour the filling over the crust and level the top.
  6. Bake until the edges are set and the center jiggles gently, about 35–45 minutes.
  7. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until fully chilled.
  8. For the topping, whisk water, caramel cream powder, and instant coffee in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until thick and glossy.
  9. Let topping cool slightly, then pour over the chilled cheesecake and spread evenly.
  10. Refrigerate until the topping is set, then slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • If your yogurt is very thin, strain it briefly for a thicker, creamier filling.
  • If your caramel topping thickens too much after cooling, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes, then spread gently.
  • Swap espresso powder for instant coffee for a stronger coffee flavor, or reduce coffee for a milder topping.
