Notes
- The glasses I have used in the photos are 400ml (approx 1 ⅔ cup) capacity.
- I have used pure cream (35% milk fat with no thickeners added), but any kind of cream will be fine as long as it can be whipped (you may need to check the package).
- I have included icing/confectioners sugar as an optional ingredient because I find the Caramilk cheesecake mixture sweet enough without it. But, having said that sugar can be a bit like salt in a recipe like this in that people's preferences can vary a lot. This is why I suggest that you put it in last, so you can have a taste test first.
