Morning all, just after a bit of advice please

Have just discovered the delights of the hobnobs, where have I been to have missed these, and we LOVE them.

Want to make a cheesecake at the weekend usually use digestive biscuits but thought hobnobs would be good, should I bake the biscuits as normal then use like digestives or spread out in bottom of cheesecake tin and bake for a little longer,anyone tried this?

This is if course presuming that the said biscuits make it into the cheesecake ........:D

    Yes I would bake them probably the day before so they firm up enough to then crumble into the biscuit base when you bash them.

    Enjoy :) x

    I'd bake and then crumble as the base is usually biscuit crumbs mixed with butter/marg so that it's possible to cut it easily
