Lemon crumble cheesecake slice

There are cheesecake slices and than there’s this cheesecake slice! Every layer is absolutely perfect with just the right amount of smooth creamy cheesecake and a delicious crumble on top. Once you’ve made this made it once, you’ll be going back time and time again – it’s just that good! If you really want to take things to the next level you can serve it with ice cream or a drizzle of thickened cream, but really, this gorgeous slice is just as moorish on its own. Enjoy!

Ingredients 

• 1¼ cups plain flour
• 1¼ cups rolled oats
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp bi-carb soda
• ½ cup raw sugar
• ½ cup packed brown sugar
• ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 x 395g can sweetened condensed milk

• ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice

Stir in the raw sugar and brown sugar and mix until smooth. Stir vanilla into melted butter and pour mixture over dry ingredients. Stir mixture until well combined.
