Method

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 220'C/Gas mark 7.
  2. First make the pastry. Measure the flour into a bowl and rub in the fats with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Bind to a soft but not sticky pastry with the water. Roll out the pastry thinly on a lightly floured work surface, and use a 3inch (7.5cm) cutter to stamp out 24 rounds. Use these to line the prepared bun trays and chill.
  3. For the filling, mix the cheese with the butter and then stir in all the remaining ingredients (the mixture will be fairly wet). Spoon generously into the chilled pastry cases and bake in the pre-heated oven for about 15 minutes or until the cheesecakes are beginning to brown on top. Allow to cool slightly, before serving warm.
