This is a very old recipe that my great grandmother use to make, of course in her time she made the cream cheese, had the cream from the cow and made her own butter.. the crumbs were made from stale biscuits.. but for those that are having a little trouble, especially if they are converting it to a berry one.. put in a Tablespoon of Gelatin with the Jelly (use a berry jelly) let it cool, (but watch that it does not set) I put the Cream Cheese, Sugar & Jelly mix together, whip it up with a stick blender, then whip it with frozen berries.. then add it to the whipped Evaporated Milk.

Mmmm such a yummy cake! It received so many compliments when I brought it to work. Using the quantities in the recipe, I managed to make 1 big cake in a springform tin and 3 small ones (in small drinking glasses). The small cakes set really well and held their shape but the big cake didn't hold its shape so well, it was with me in the car (~ 15 degrees) for about half an hour and collapsed a bit before I got to work to chill it again. I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for why this might be, my initial thought was that maybe I didn't beat the evaporated milk thick enough.

hi, if i use sour cream instead of evaporated milk, will it work?
CHELSEA SUGAR: Hi there, we wouldn't recommend this swap - sour cream won't whip like evaporated milk does, so the cheesecake will likely be a lot more dense. The flavour would be quite different too.

Method
Mix crushed biscuit crumbs and melted Tararua Butter. Press into the base of a 21cm spring form well-greased cake tin. Bake for 10 minutes at 150°C. Cool.
Melt jelly in boiling water. Add rind and juice of the lemon.
Beat the Meadow Fresh Cream Cheese with the Chelsea White Sugar, add to jelly, stirring until well combined and creamy smooth.
In a separate bowl, whip chilled evaporated milk until thick and fold into mixture. Add vanilla essence.
Pour into crumb base and put in fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Tip: Garnish with berries
