Before you begin
This chilled 15 cm loaf is MolalaCook’s adaptation of Mr. Cheesecake’s recipe. Use the paper as a sling to lift out the cold cake without pressing on its soft top.
Method 做法
Press the biscuit base
Line a 15 cm rectangular mould with baking paper. Crush the biscuits in a bag with a rolling pin, mix with the melted butter and press firmly into the base. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.

Infuse the milk and dissolve the gelatine
Soak the gelatine in cold water for about 10 minutes. Warm the milk with the mint and a little sansho. Squeeze the water from the gelatine and dissolve it in the warm milk. Strain out the mint, then gradually mix the infused milk into the lime filling.
