TUXEDO CHEESECAKE
I made this cake for a gathering. I got the idea after having a tuxedo cheesecake at Cheese Cake Factory. I tried to recreate it basically. It didn't turn out 100% like Cheese Cake Factory, but pretty close...and still yummy! The cake went to fast, wasn't able to take a picture of an individual slice. :( Enjoy! Go Cheesecake!

Steps:
- 1. For Devil's Food cake: 1- Bake as directed on box for 9 inch spring form pan, or as your own recipe requires. 2- Cool cake completely and set aside. Side note: Again you need to yield one 9 inch round cake layer. Please use spring form pan!
- 2. For Chocolate Cheesecake layer: 1- In a double boiler, melt chocolate chips. 2- Cream remaining chocolate cheesecake layer ingredients together. 3- Once chocolate is completely melted, stir into cheesecake batter. Mix vigorously until completely incorporated. If using a hand or stand mixer, mix on high for 1 minute. 3- Set aside.
- 3. For Mascarpone Cheese Layer: 1- Cream Mascarpone cheese and butter together. 2- Add heavy cream, sugar and vanilla to mascarpone batter. 3- Beat on high until you get soft peeks, like whipped cream. 4- Set aside.
- 4. For Mousse Topping: 1- Beat cream, vanilla and sugar into peaks. Put in fridge to chill. 2- In a double boiler, add chocolate, espresso powder, and butter. Melt completely, stirring occasionally. 3- Once melted chocolate mixture is hot, stir in egg yolks one at a time. Stir vigorously until completely incorporated. 4- Mix whipped cream into chocolate mixture slowly. 5- Once completely incorporated, pour mixture into a glass bowl and refrigerate for 6 hours. Side note: This recipe can be made up to 2 days ahead of time.
- 5. For Ganache layer: 1- Scald heavy cream with vanilla extract in a heavy bottomed sauce pan. 2- Pour over chocolate and stir until smooth. Side note: Use ganache immediately after making it. Plan your time out accordingly so ganache is made right before you need to use it.
- 6. ASSEMBLY: 1- Level your devil's food cake layer out to about 1/2 - 3/4 inch thick. Place cake layer on a cake dish, or cake round. 2- Take ring from the spring form pan you used to bake the devil's food cake and secure it back around your cake layer. 3- Pour your chocolate cheesecake mixture on top of devil's food cake layer, even out. Let set in refrigerator for 1 hour. 4- With spring form pan ring still in place, On top of chocolate cheesecake layer pour mascarpone cheese mixture and even out. I chose to pour a little chocolate sauce in the mascarpone layer, but this is optional. Chill for another hour. 5- With spring form pan ring still in place, pour fresh ganache over your mascarpone layer. Lat cool for 20-30 minutes until it stiffens up. 6- Slice a sharp knife around the edges of the spring form pan ring and release the spring form pan ring from the cake. Remove carefully. 7- Frost the outsides of your cake with the chocolate mousse. 8- I chose to garnish the cake with a little melted white chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate chips and I chose to garnish the top of my cake with my excess mousse. All garnish is optional of course. Make your cake pretty anyway you like. :) 9- Chill cake completely before serving.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients, especially for the chocolate and cream cheese. This will ensure that your cheesecake has the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help to prevent lumps and ensure a smooth cheesecake filling.
- Do not overmix the cheesecake batter. Overmixing can cause the cheesecake to be dense and crumbly.
- Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
- Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the cheesecake to set properly and develop its full flavor.
Conclusion:
The tuxedo cheesecake is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any special occasion. The combination of chocolate and cream cheese is a classic flavor combination that is sure to please everyone. With its smooth and creamy texture and rich chocolate flavor, the tuxedo cheesecake is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
