First, we will prepare the biscuit base of the cheesecake.

Put the digestive biscuits into a Ziplock bag and crush them into fine crumbs with a rolling pin.

Be sure to crush the biscuits into fine crumbs for a smoother biscuit base

Pour the crumbs into a bowl and add the melted butter. Stir to combine them well.

Line a springform pan with parchment paper and press the biscuit mixture onto the base of the pan, spreading it evenly.

Place the pan in the freezer to chill for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, we will prepare the cream cheese filling. Boil a pot of water and place a heatproof bowl over it.

When the gelatin has dissolved, remove the bowl from the pot and set aside to cool. Prepare a food processor for the next step and add in all the cream cheese filling ingredients including the gelatin mixture after it has cooled down slightly. Blend until smooth.

Pour half of the cream cheese filling into the springform pan and place it into the freezer to semi-set for 10-15 minutes. Keep the other half of the cream cheese filling for later.

While we let the first layer of cream cheese filling chill in the fridge, we will go on to prepare the peach jelly filling for the middle layer of the cake. Heat up a small saucepan and add the peach syrup, water, sugar, agar agar powder, and gelatin powder into the pot and bring it to a boil while stirring carefully. Ensure all the agar agar powder and gelatin powder are fully dissolved. Then remove from heat and leave it to cool for two minutes.
