Directions
- Put the biscuits into a food processor and blitz them until you have fine crumbs
- Alternatively, place the biscuits in a freezer bag or between a clean tea-towel on a flat surface and crush them using a rolling pin
- Place the crumb in a glass bowl and add the melted butter mix well to completely combine
- Line the bottom of a 23cm spring-form tin with baking parchment and put the biscuit mix in, press it down using the back of a spoon or a flat weight (the bottom of a heavy glass always works well) to get a flat even surface
- Place in the fridge to cool and set for at least 30 minutes
