As when a hungry man dreams, and, behold, he eats

Hidely-ho, Vomerinos. This was my favourite unbaked cheesecake recipe as a lad. It has a velvety smooth texture, looks peachy and strikes the perfect effort : reward ratio.
I've been looking for that tea set for many a long year. You will too after one bite.





Tips

* Substitute blood orange juice for apricot nectar. Add a little more gelatine / arrowroot to compensate for the thinner consistency.
* Wheaten ('digestive') biscuits are a worthy alternative to the sugary ('Nice') ones.
* The biscuits should be crushed to the consistency of breadcrumbs.
* I freeze the base for 1 hour. It's wacky but it works. Either way,
ensure that the base has set before you add the filling, or hilarity will not ensue.
* Adding rum to the glaze is extremely optional.

Difficulty rating: achievable by intelligent 6-year-olds.
