Blend/smash the biscuits into crumbs and melt the butter, then combine together in a mixing bowl along with the light brown sugar.
Spoon approx 1 tbsp of the mixture into cupcake cases (ideally placed in a muffin tin) and press down with the back of a spoon until it’s a smooth, flat layer.
Bake in the oven on 180°C fan for 5 mins (optional but helps to hold it together!)
Set aside then in a separate mixing bowl add the double cream and whisk using a hand mixer for a minute or 2 until it’s stiff.
In another bowl whisk together the cream cheese, sugar, yoghurt, lemon juice and vanilla with your hand mixer, then fold in the cream and mix slowly with a spatula.
Add the filling on top of the bases, smooth down and refrigerate over night.
Add your toppings - chopped up Gingerbread bar and crumbled up ginger biscuit!
