Another cheesecake i made for Jeremy's birthday (he wanted two hehehe). And yeah like all my cheesecakes, is low-fat cause i use yoghurt cheese. ou can substitute cream cheese for a fat version : P
Ingredients
- 15 plain chocolate biscuits (NOT choc-coated, just crunchy chocolate cookies) shopping list
- 1/4 cup boiling water shopping list
- 3 Tbsp cocoa powder shopping list
- 750g fresh low-fat ricotta cheese (NOT pre-packaged) shopping list
- 125g yoghurt cheese shopping list
- 1/3 cup caster sugar shopping list
- 1 tsp vanillla extract shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 1 egg white shopping list
- 1/2 cup greek-style yoghurt shopping list
- 2 Tbsp cornflour shopping list
- 2 Tbsp chocolate topping/sauce shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 150 degrees celcuis. Line a 22 cm square slab tin.
- Place cookies in bottom of tin, breaking to fit.
- Combine boiling water and cocoa in a small bowl, leave to cool 5 minutes.
- Place ricotta, yoghurt cheese, sugar and vanilla in a big bowl and beat with an electric mixer till smooth and creamy.
- Whisk the eggs and egg white together in a small bowl, then add to the ricotta mixture, gradually, beating on low speed until well combined. Add the yoghurt and cornflour, mix well. Divide mixtre between 2 bowls.
- Add the cocoa mixture to one of the bowls of the ricotta-mix.
- Spread half the chocolate-ricotta mixture over the biscuit base, then spread 2/3 of the plain rocotta mixture over the top of that.
- Pour over the rest of the choc-ricotta, then dollop on the remaining plain ricotta mix. Swirl together with a spoon and sorta smooth it a bit with a knife.
- Drizzle the chocolate topping in horizontal lines accross the top of the cheesecake, then drag a skewer through the lines, like at right-angles, to create a pretty pattern.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until just set. (the centre will still be slightly wobbly). Switch the oven off and leave the cheesecake in there with the door open to cool for one hour.
- Refrigerate for atleast 4 hours before serving.
