Ingredients
- 100g Digestive Biscuits

- 85g Butter
- 250ml Greek Yogurt
- 750g Mascarpone
- 2 Eggs
- Zest of 1 Lemon

- 250ml Honey
- To serve Fruit Mix
Steps
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Crush the biscuits and most of the almonds inside a plastic food bag using a rolling pin. Mix with the butter, then press into the bottom of a deep, oval, 23cm dish (or something similar in size – a roasting tin, baking dish or cake tin will work). Bake for 10 mins until crisp.
- Stir or mash together the yogurt and mascarpone, then whisk in the eggs, one at a time. Stir in the lemon and orange zests, then stir in most of the honey, reserving about 3 tbsp. Spread over the biscuit base, cover loosely with foil and cook for 1 hr. Remove the foil and cook for 15 mins more until lightly golden and the top is firm with just the slightest wobble in the middle. Leave to cool. Can
- To serve, scatter with almonds, drizzle over the remaining honey, and hand around fresh fruit to go with it.
