- ½ cup/1 stick butter melted
For the dark chocolate filling:
- 200 g./7 oz. cream cheese
- 1 cup/250 ml. heavy cream
- 1 ⅓ cups sugar
- 300 g. semi-sweet chocolate melted in a microwave or a double boiler
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder dissolved in 5 tablespoons of water to form a paste
For the white chocolate filling:
- 600 g./1 lb. 3 oz. white chocolate
- 600 g./1 lb. 3 oz. cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions
In the meantime prepare the dark chocolate filling:
- Mix together the digestive biscuits/wafer crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture in the mini molds.
- Bake in a preheated oven, at 200°C/400°F, for 3-4 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In the meantime prepare the dark chocolate filling:
- Place the heavy cream and sugar in a bowl of an electric mixer, and mix until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add the cream cheese just to incorporate.
- Mix the melted chocolate and the dissolved cocoa. Stir well to fully incorporate, then fold in the whipped cream mixture. Mix gently to fully integrate.
- Pour the dark chocolate filling over the crust of the mini molds, covering half of the molds (or paper cups).
Now prepare the white chocolate filling:
- Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or a microwave.
- In a bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese, melted white chocolate, milk, sugar, butter, and vanilla. Mix until it is smooth and of one texture.
- Dollop the white chocolate filling over each mold almost covering it.
- Refrigerate overnight. Sprinkle some cocoa powder over each serving, optional. Enjoy!
