Description

Looking for an elegant scrumptious dessert that will impress anyone, then go no further

Ingredients
 

For the crust:

  • 200 g./7 oz. digestive biscuits/vanilla wafers crushed into crumbs, using a food
  • 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
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter softened
  • You will need 20 small spring form pans or 20 paper-lined muffin cups

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!
