Recipe for Walnut-Chocolate Cheesecake
(26 cm diameter cake tin)
Ingredients for the base:
-
100 g spice cookies
-
40 g melted butter
Ingredients for the cheese mass:
-
1 kg of cottage cheese from a bucket (good quality)
-
5 eggs
-
1 package of vanilla or cream pudding (powder)
-
400 ml sweetened condensed milk (this is what gives it its velvety texture!)
-
4 teaspoons of Choco & Peanoot Crunchy cream from Good Noot
-
50 g chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
Additionally for decoration:
-
3 generous tablespoons of Choco & Peanoot Crunchy cream
-
50 g chocolate drops
-
50 g chopped pecans
How to make it:
-
Crispy base: Grind the spiced cookies into a powder and mix with melted butter. Pour the mixture onto the bottom of a springform pan lined with baking paper, smooth out the surface, and press down lightly with your hand or the back of a glass.
-
Cheesecake filling: Crack the eggs into a large bowl and mix briefly. Add the custard powder, cottage cheese, Choco & Peanut Butter, and condensed milk. Mix just until combined (but not too long, as this will cause air bubbles in the mixture!).
-
Chocolate topping: Pour the mixture onto the prepared base. Sprinkle 50g of chocolate drops on top and gently fold them into the cheese mixture with a spoon.
-
Baking: put the dough in an oven preheated to 170 degrees and bake for 70 minutes .
-
Cooling: After baking, turn off the oven, open the door, and leave the cheesecake inside for another 30 minutes. Then turn it out onto the counter to cool completely.
-
To decorate: Once the cheesecake has cooled, spread the Choco & Peanoot Crunchy spread over the top. Sprinkle generously with chocolate shavings and chopped pecans.
-
Cooling: Refrigerate the cheesecake overnight (ideally) or for at least 3 hours. The filling needs to set to be perfectly slicable.
Have a nice and sweet day!
