CHEESECAKE FACTORY CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CHEESECAKE RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:

• CHOCOLATE CRUST: Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Remove the butter from the heat. Add the chocolate cookie crumbs to the butter and stir until all the crumbs are coated. Press the cookie crumb mixture onto the bottom and sides of a 10-inch springform pan. CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE LAYER: Prepare the cheesecake. Use an electric mixer to combine the cream cheese with the sugar, sour cream and vanilla, until creamy. Whisk the eggs in a small bowl and then blend them with the cream cheese mixture, just enough to incorporate the eggs. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the semisweet chocolate. Add the melted chocolate to the cheesecake mixture, stirring so that it is fully combined. Pour the cheesecake filling into the crust-lined pan and bake for about 12 minutes at 475°F, then turn the oven down to 350°F and bake for 50-60 more minutes or until the cheesecake top is lightly browned. CHOCOLATE MOUSSE In a small bowl, pour gelatin into the cold water and let it stand for a minute or two until it becomes soft, or "blooms." Add boiling water and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved. Cool slightly. In a medium bowl, stir together sugar and cocoa; Add the whipping cream and vanilla. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture while scraping the bottom of bowl occasionally. When the mixture has thickened, add the dissolved gelatin and beat until well blended. Cool the chocolate mousse in the refrigerator until you are ready to assemble the cake. ASSEMBLE THE CHEESECAKE: When the chocolate cheesecake has cooled, spread the chocolate mousse on top and sprinkle with shaved chocolate. Serve with a topping of whipped cream.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CHEESECAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 375 F. Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
• In a food processor, combine the crushed cookies and sugar; pulse twice to combine. With the food processor running on low, slowly add the melted butter until the mixture comes together.
• Press the cookie mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, allowing the crust to come up slightly on the sides, but not reaching the top of the pan. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven, then reduce the oven temperature to 350 F.
• Melt the milk and chocolate in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently. Stir in the espresso powder and vanilla, then remove the mixture from the heat.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar on medium speed with an electric hand mixer until fully combined, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl several times to ensure an even texture. (Alternatively, you can use an stand mixer for this.)
• Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
• Add the chocolate mixture and mix again on low until fully combined.
• Pour the batter over the prepared crust, spreading it into an even layer, then place on the baking sheet. Bake until the center is only slightly jiggly and the outside edges look set, about 30 to 40 minutes.
• Turn off the oven and open the oven door slightly. Allow the cake to cool in the oven for 1 hour. This helps prevent cracking during cooling.
• Remove the cheesecake from the oven and place on a wire rack to finish cooling completely. Once cool, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you make the mousse.
• Whisk together the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl until light and frothy, about 1 minute.
• Heat 3/4 cups of the cream in a small saucepan over medium until it begins to steam. Remove from the heat and add the chocolate, stirring until melted completely. Allow this mixture to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
• Very slowly whisk the chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture until fully combined. Set aside to cool until just barely room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• In another large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Fold about 1/3 of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture with a rubber spatula to loosen it-do not worry too much about losing any of the air from the egg whites.
• Fold in the remaining egg whites until only a few white streaks remain (careful not to overmix).
• Using the bowl the egg whites were in, beat the remaining cream on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Fold this whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until no streaks remain.
• Remove the cheesecake from the refrigerator and top with the chocolate mousse. Cover and chill the mousse cheesecake for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Release the chilled cheesecake from the springform pan, then slice and serve. Top with whipped cream, if desired.

CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Place cookies in plastic bag and crush them into a fine crumb using a rolling pin. Alternatively, a food processor can be used to crush the cookies.
• Pour the cookie crumbs into a medium bowl with the melted butter and brown sugar. Mix until the crumbs take on the character of a coarse, wet sand.
• Pour the crumbs into a 9-inch (23 cm) spring pan. Press the crumb firmly into the pan, making sure to coat the bottom evenly.
• Once the crust has been formed, place it in the refrigerator to firm up.
• Add cream cheese, melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and sugar to a large bowl and whisk, either by hand or with an electric mixer, until all the ingredients are incorporated.
• NOTE: If mixing by hand, it is recommended to microwave the cream cheese slightly before whisking in order to soften it up.
• Add vanilla extract and eggs, and continue to whisk until mixture is smooth and glossy.
• In a separate bowl, combine heavy cream and powdered sugar. Whisk until the cream develops a mousse-y texture and soft peaks form.
• Adding a small amount at a time, carefully fold in the whipped cream into the cream cheese batter, being careful not to let the air out of the fluffy mixture. Fold just until incorporated.
• Once combined, pour the batter over the prepared cookie crust inside the springform pan. Use a spatula to smooth out the top. Give the pan a slight jiggle to release any large air bubbles that may be trapped in the batter.
• Preheat oven to 300˚F (150˚C).
• Place the filled pan on top of a sheet of aluminium foil and fold the foil up the sides on the outside of the pan. Then place the wrapped pan into a larger baking pan or dish lined with 2 paper towels at the bottom.
• NOTE: The aluminium foil will keep water from seeping into the bottom of the pan and the paper towels ensure that the heat is distributed evenly along the bottom of the pan.
• Fill the larger pan with about 1 inch (2 ½ cm) of hot water.
• Bake at 300˚F (150˚C) for 60-70 minutes--checking every 15-20 minutes to add more hot water to the larger dish, as necessary.
• Once out of the oven, immediately run a small sharp knife around the outside of the cheesecake to release it from the pan. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before removing it from the pan.
• Prepare the ganache by combining chocolate chips with hot cream. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and ganache is smooth and glossy.
• Pour ganache evenly over the cooled cheesecake.
• Refrigerate the ganache covered cake for 30 minutes before cutting and serving.
• Enjoy!
