Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

butter , for the tin
100g white chocolate
200g digestive biscuits , crushed
500g mascarpone
200g full-fat yogurt
3 eggs
100g caster sugar
1 lemon , zested, 1/2 juiced
½ tsp vanilla bean paste
50g shelled pistachios , roughly chopped
1 tbsp icing sugar (optional)
mixed berries , to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Line the base of a deep 20cm springform cake tin with baking parchment and butter the base and sides. Melt the white chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of just simmering water (ensure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water). Alternatively, melt the chocolate in a microwave in short bursts. When the chocolate is completely smooth, stir in the biscuits and a small pinch of salt. Press into the base of the tin, all the way to the edges, ensuring the base is even. Put in the fridge to chill for at least 20 mins.
  • Heat the oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Beat the mascarpone, yogurt, eggs, caster sugar, lemon zest and juice and vanilla bean paste together with an electric whisk until smooth, then tip over the biscuit base. Transfer the tin to a baking tray and bake for 45 mins until almost set, with just a slight wobble in the middle. Turn the oven off with the cheesecake inside, and leave the door ajar. Leave the cheesecake to cool completely.
  • Once completely cool and set, loosen the sides and base of the tin with a knife, and carefully transfer the cheesecake to a serving plate. Scatter over the pistachios and dust with the icing sugar, then serve with the berries on the side.

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs
1/2 cup unsalted pistachios, ground in a food processor
1/4 cup sugar
4 ounces butter, melted
1 lb cream cheese (room temperature)
6 ounces dark chocolate, melted
1 egg
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup unsalted pistachios
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine all crust ingredients and mix until well combined. Press the cookie mixture into the bottom and sides of a 10-inch tart pan. Bake the crust until fragrant, about 8 minutes. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before adding the filling.
  • To prepare the filling, place the cream cheese and sugar in a large metal bowl and, using an electric mixer, beat until creamy and smooth, about 4 minutes. Turn the mixer off and scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Continue mixing on low and add the egg; beat to incorporate. Scrape the sides of the bowl again. With the mixer still on low, pour in melted chocolate, and mix.
  • Pour the filling mixture over the cooled crust. If the mixture is too firm to settle, smooth the top of the filling with a few drops of water. Bake until the cake rises and puffs at the center, about 25 minutes. Remove fr om the oven and place on a wire rack to cool. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before proceeding.
  • To make the cream, combine powdered sugar and pistachios in a food processor. While the processor is running, slowly pour in heavy cream.
  • Within a few minutes the mixture will thicken. Spread the cream over the cheesecake.
  • Slice, serve, and enjoy!
