Ingredients:
Vanilla Cheesecake
- 1 ½ cup digestive biscuit
- 1 ½ cup unsalted butter
- 16 oz whole fat cream cheese (450 g), room temperature
- ½ cup powdered sugar (60 g)
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup chilled whipping cream
- some sweetened whipped cream
Chocolate Cheesecake
- 6.7 oz Oreo cookies (190 g)
- 3 tablespoon unsalted melted butter
- 8 oz semisweet chocolate (230 gr), chopped into small pieces
- 14 oz cream cheese (400 g)
- 1 cup icing sugar (120 g), sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup whipping cream min 35% fat
- 3 oz semisweet chocolate (85 gr), chopped into small pieces
- ⅓ cup whipping cream min 35% fat
Directions:
Vanilla Cheesecake
For the cheesecake base, place the digestive biscuits in a Ziploc bag and crush them until you make them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin.
In a mixing bowl, combine the biscuit crumbs and 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter.
Pour the mixture into a 7-inch or 18cm springform pan and press evenly using the back of a spoon. Let it cool in the freezer for about 30 minutes to harden.
For the filling, whisk 16 oz of full-fat cream cheese at room temperature until fluffy. Use a regular whisk or any handheld mixer. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk the whipping cream until stiff peaks and add it to the cream cheese mixture. Gently fold everything together with a spatula. Pour the mixture into a prepared springform pan and let it chill in the coldest part of the fridge for a minimum of 8 hours, or until it fully sets. With a knife, carefully run it around the cheesecake to help it loosen up. Then, release the spring and remove the ring. Run a knife around under the cheesecake base to loosen it up and insert 2 big flat spatulas underneath in opposite directions. Swiftly lift up the cheesecake using the spatulas and place it on a platter.
Slice, serve, and enjoy every bite!
