- In a food blender, blend the biscuits until they resemble fine breadcrumbs.
- Transfer the crumbs into a bowl and stir in the melted butter. Press the crumbs onto the base of the pan, making sure it is as even as possible. Leave it in the fridge for at least 10min to set the base.
- Place all the ingredients for the filling into a food processor and pulse a few times to get a smooth mixture.
- In a small bowl, combine the gelatine and hot water and stir thoroughly until all the gelatine has dissolved.
