Cheesecake Base

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheesecake Base

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and cocoa powder, mixing until well combined. Add the vanilla extract and one egg at a time, beating well after each addition. Finally, fold in the heavy cream until fully integrated.

  2. 2

    Bake the Cheesecake

    Pour the cheesecake mixture into a greased 9-inch springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour.

  3. 3

    Cool and Refrigerate

    Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  4. 4

    Prepare Whipped Cream

    In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add a little sugar if desired, and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.

  5. 5

    Serve

    To serve, slice the cheesecake and drizzle with chocolate sauce. Top with a dollop of softly whipped cream.
