Method

Step 1 of 5

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 22cm springform pan and line base with baking paper.

Step 2 of 5

In an electric mixer, beat eggs with both sugars for 8 minutes until pale and creamy. Gently beat in butter. Stir in flour. Combine carrot, nuts, sultanas and cinnamon. Fold into batter with apple sauce. Transfer to pan and bake for 50 minutes until cooked when tested. Cool for 10 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 3 of 5

For cheesecake, beat 250g cream cheese and 1/3 cup caster sugar together until smooth. Stir in 3/4 cup yoghurt and 2 tsp lemon juice.

Step 4 of 5

For toffee, line a baking tray with baking paper. Place 1/2 cup caster sugar and 1/3 cup cold water in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil. Cook, without stirring, for 8–10 minutes or until golden. Stand for 2 minutes until bubbles subside. Working quickly, dip 2 forks into toffee and drizzle over tray.

Step 5 of 5

To serve, use a 7cm round cutter to cut 8 rounds from cake. Cut each in half through the middle. Layer into serving glasses with the cheesecake mixture. Top with toffee.
