Preparation
  1. Crush the Walker's Shortbread Gingerbread Men into fine crumbs. Set aside about 1/4 cup for garnishing later.
  2. Combine the gingerbread crumbs with the melted butter in a mixing bowl. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of your serving dishes.
  3. Melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in 20-second intervals until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
  4. Beat the softened cream cheese until silky smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, orange zest, and orange juice. Fold in the melted white chocolate.
  5. Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture in two additions.
  6. Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly over the gingerbread crusts. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, ideally overnight.
  7. Simmer the mixed berries, red grape juice, granulated sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg in a small saucepan over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.
  8. Top each chilled cheesecake with the cooled mulled fruit mixture. Sprinkle reserved gingerbread crumbs on top and serve.
