What size packets of biscuits are used i.e. what is the total weight in gms used in the recipe? Also, when using a stand mixer for the filling, is there any particular setting to be used? Is the sugar in the filling granulated as well, or is that confectioners sugar/icing sugar? -

Hi. I wanted to know whether the sugar mentioned in the recipe is granulated or castor. -
This proved a fantastic workaround for our GF+LV household :-D I made the panir and the yoghurt myself, from lactose free milk, and used gluten free cookies for the cookie crumb crust, and voila: gluten free, lactose free but REAL cheesecake!!! Thank you so much for this creative idea :-) :-)
