  1. Crush the caramel biscuits into fine crumbs. Melt the unsalted butter and mix it with the biscuit crumbs. Press into a lined round mold and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  2. Combine softened cream cheese with 10g of caster sugar. In a separate container, dissolve the gelatin sheets in hot milk, then stir in Earl Grey tea powder. Slowly add this to the cream cheese.
