    The biscuits go in straight out of the packet - not crushed. The cheesecake mixture makes it sog just a bit. I don't know of graham cracker crust - we probably don't have it here in Oz. Use whatever works, I say.

    Yummy! Do you just put the biscuits (cookies in America?) in the dish as they come, or do you crumb them up? I use a graham cracker crust for this type of pie/cheesecake, but I'll bet it would be really good with your biscuits.
