Ingredients
Ingredients
plain chocolate biscuit
1 cup (crushed)
unsalted butter
1/3 cup (melted)
cream cheese
500 g (softened (two 8 oz. packages))
sugar
1/2 cup
thickened cream or heavy cream
1/2 cup
Toblerone chocolate bars
200 g (melted (approximately 8 ounces milk or dark chocolate))
extra Toblerone chocolate bar
(grated (for garnish))
confectioners' sugar
to taste (for dusting (optional))
Instructions
1
Prepare the Springform Pan: Lightly grease a 23cm (9-inch) springform pan. Set aside.
2
Create the Crust: Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Crush the chocolate biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable plastic bag and rolling over them with a rolling pin. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the melted butter with the biscuit crumbs, mixing until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form an even base. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill and set while you prepare the filling.
3
Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
4
Melt the Toblerone: Break the Toblerone chocolate bars into pieces and melt in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir frequently until fully melted and smooth.
5
Combine Ingredients: Add the melted Toblerone chocolate and the heavy cream to the cream cheese mixture. Beat until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
6
Assemble the Cheesecake: Retrieve the chilled crust from the refrigerator. Pour the cream cheese mixture onto the prepared base, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top with a spatula for a neat finish.
7
Chill: Cover the cheesecake lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight, allowing it to fully set.
8
Serve and Garnish: Before serving, carefully release the sides of the springform pan and transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter. Garnish the top with grated Toblerone chocolate and, if desired, a dusting of confectioners' sugar for an extra touch of elegance.
9
Note: For a firmer cheesecake, extend the chilling time to 12 hours or overnight. This will ensure a perfect texture upon serving.
