INGREDIENTS:
FOR THE BASE/CRUST Biscuits Digestive/Marie- 35 Butter- 100 ml Sugar- 2-3 tablespoon
FOR THE CHEESECAKE FILLING Cream cheese- 250 grams (at room temperature) Heavy Cream- 200 ml Mango Puree- 3/4th cup Cottage Cheese- 1/3rd cup Condensed Milk- 100 grams White Chocolate- 70 grams Vanilla extract- 1/2 teaspoon
FOR TOPPING Some fresh fruits like Mangoes and Pomegranate. You can spoon some Compote, Coulis, Glaze or Jam as well for the topping.
DIRECTIONS:
Crush the biscuits and sugar together in a dry grinder or blender. Melt butter either in a pan or in microwave. while its hot add it in the crushed biscuits mix. Mix well. Divide this mix equally in all the glasses. Spoon the mix gently at the bottom of the glass and press it gently. Do not press it very hard. It will be eventually pressed down with the moisture and weight of the cheesecake layer. Keep the glasses in fridge to set.
Meanwhile let's make our filling layer. Using an electric mixer fit with the whisk attachment, whisk heavy cream until soft peaks form. Avoid over beating. Melt the chocolate in Microwave by heating in a heat proof bowl for 20-30 seconds. Mix it well so that there are no lumps.
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients listed under cheesecake filling except heavy cream and chocolate.
Whisk well until combined completely. The mixture should be smooth and silky.
Using a spatula, gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, then fold in the other half. In the same way fold in melted chocolate too. Just be sure chocolate should not be hot or else it will deflate the cream. Evenly spoon (or pipe using a piping bag) the filling into each serving dish.
Top with fresh fruit or any other topping you like. Cover and place in the fridge for at least two hours before serving. This way the layers will set properly. Serve them cold. Enjoy!!! |
