Whip up the double cream to soft peaks.
Fold the cream into the cheese and spread on top of the biscuit base

Enjoy
For the decoration, I melted milk chocolate and spread it onto a piece of grease-proof paper, the same size as the spring form tin. I then drizzled melted white chocolate over and chilled in the fridge. Once set, cut to size using a sharp knife.
