Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake
INGREDIENTS
Crust
20 chocolate sandwich cookies
¼ cup brown sugar
7 tablespoons butter, melted
Cheesecake
32 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 ounces melted semisweet chocolate
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1½ cups sugar
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 eggs
1 ½ cup heavy cream
¼ cup powdered sugar
Chocolate Ganache
16 ounces chocolate chips
2 cups heavy cream, hot
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 300˚F/150˚C.
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 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 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.
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. 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 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!

.....for those who are saying "so much sugar" "diabetes" "disgusting" 1- cocoa powder is NOT sweet. It's bitter...hence the added sugar 2- you need the brown sugar in the crust to keep it from being crumbly and cardboard tasting after being baked 3- if you already have diabetes, I would not eat this cheesecake...but if you don't, stop bitching. You can have one slice...just don't eat the entire thing... 4- do you look at the labels on the food and drink you have every single day? I'm gonna let you in on a little surprise....there is sugar in EVERYTHING right down to bread....Even the "healthiest" things have a fuck ton of sugar in it...right down to strawberries and carrot. Granted it processes differently than the sugar they use, but it's still a valid point.

[@trishab6822]

This. I get so fed up with people and the "diabetes" crap. That isn't how diabetes works. If you have a healthy endocrine system and pancreas you could eat this whole cake in one day and be fine, albeit probably sick from all the sugar but NOT DIABETIC. Eating sugar doesn't give you diabetes. That statement is ridiculous and ignorant.

[@MisteMiner]

A carrot has a "fuck ton" of sugar in it? You seem very knowledgeable.

[@dudebro2313]

MisteMiner now you're just looking for ways to talk back. You gotta admit, Old Lady has a point. The jokes and comments are getting boring anyway.

[@skyer8202]

Trish McSquish Trish, you know what I mean. You can't eat this entire cake every single day for years and then expect to stay healthy as a horse. These people are just ridiculous.

[@skyer8202]

MisteMiner Did you not see the part where I said "granted it processes differently." Because it does. Carrots do on fact have sugar in them. It's from the fact that they use sun and water to feed them which creates glucose which is essentially sugar. One carrot has 2.9 grams of sugar in it, and you damn well know someone in here is gonna say "diabetes" about that little bit of sugar. It's too early for this shit.

[@chaoticevelyn]

To anyone struggling with the texture of the cheesecakes, here are some tips. Let the cheesecake cool for several hours, preferably overnight to help set it. Then once you're ready to slice it, freeze it for several hours so it doesn't lose it's shape. Because of the mousse texture, it's actually really good out of the freezer

[@ItsOver9000000]

[@brianmallett6546]

We made this cake for my younger brother's birthday last week and holy shit that cake was in the top 5 sweetest foods I have ever eaten. The chocolate icing is what really puts it over the edge.

[@jillblew3392]

Please don't add hot, or even very warm, melted chocolate to cold or cool cream cheese. The chocolate will harden and then as you beat it, it will be tiny chocolate flakes. Also, if you don't mix it well much of the chocolate could harden on the bottom of your bowl. If this happens you won't get the chocolatey flavor you want. Warm your cream cheese to room temperature, and don't melt the chocolate any more than you absolutely have to, and let it cool for a bit before adding it to the cheese for a creamy chocolate flavor all the way through.

[@TheScorchGladers]

OMG! THAT'S A LOT OF SUGAR! I bet its already sweet if you added with melted chocolate and cocoa powder, eh?

[@beebleboosecaboose]

unsweetened cocoa could help but it is kinda the point that it is so rich :/

[@scarletpeoni9347]

Faisal Kamal I thought that too

[@sursidejr]

i think with 1 cup of sugar was ok, the chocolate and the cocoas powder isnt that sweet

[@kennedyschurch3885]

Faisal Kamal usually when I bake, I half the sugar.

[@alesinayoung362]

normally half the sugar requirement or even less...our family does not indulge much in sugar..also when there's sugar in other ingredients like chocolate

[@bacongodofsteak6215]

thanks tasty without you there will be no extremely popular buzz feed series

[@nachosevilla4027]

I made this came yesterday and it was amazing! Thanks for the recipe!

[@fruchtsugarisauchsugar]

Nacho Sevilla did you use the same among of sugar or less? If you used the same, was it too much or good? Sry for my bad english

[@nachosevilla4027]

I used the same amount of sugar, but I accidentally added to much cream, so I would use less for the next time. I also thought that the amount given was quite big. Hope this helps

[@fruchtsugarisauchsugar]

yes, thank you :) if you like peanut butter, bananas and caramel I recommend to try Tastys Caramelized Banana Peanut Butter Cheesecake I swear its absolutely amazing

[@nachosevilla4027]

Definitely will try thanks

[@ShreesRecipes]

Nice recipe, also 10 on 10 plating 👍👌

[@ProPlayer-wq3nu]

ay thats pretty good

[@scarletpeoni9347]

Serious question...what is all of the extra sugar for? does it do something when setting or is it for flavour because surely there is enough already in the cookies and chocolate?

[@Sp3c9000]

Scarlet Peoni cocoa powder isn't sweetened and the other chocolate they use probably isn't either. But cocoa powder itself is very bitter.

[@scarletpeoni9347]

Sp3cTrA2991 yeah i wasnt thinking of the cocoa powder part that made sense... it was more adding it to the oeros and then the chocolate looked to be milk chocolate.

[@nicole4352]

At a guess I'd say the chocolate used was semi-sweet, and considering that it is a dessert and cream cheese and cocoa powder aren't sweet at all the sugar in the mousse makes sense. I'm with you on the crust though, there's no need to make it that sweet unless the filling isn't very sweetened.

[@lisejl]

i heard the sugar in the crust is too make the crust less crumbly but like, personally i feel like it would be ok without it

[@kevinr.m.richardson812]

That is correct. A lot of science is at work in food preparation, and adding sweetness is only one of the things that sugar achieves as a tool of the trade.

[@brooklynnsworld3644]

The cut was so satisfying

[@lavieenbleu2511]

Love the little music💕

[@UnravelingDaily]

Who else watches these but doesn't actually make any of the food?

[@juliatsogbe8094]

Girl I know I do! You're awesome

[@lucybarton8690]

Amazing recipe but took me 4hrs plus chilling time to make 😂👍

[@lalialuz]

it’s literally in the oven rn and i’m so impatient lmao

[@patricianicolev.periquet5512]

Soooooooooo!!!!! Yummy.

[@EtheriumSky]

Is the hot water tray for baking necessary? What is it for? I dont have enough oven safe containers in right sizes...

[@bobl5737]

The hot water tray, or water bath, provides moisture and promotes even baking throughout the cake. This reduces (usually eliminates) cracks in your cheesecake. I use a 14" round layer cake pan like the one in the video (really cheap at Walmart) and place a towel in the bottom to provide an insulating layer between the water bath pan and the cheesecake pan. Then, make a foil tray around the bottom of the cheesecake pan to keep the water from leaking into your cheesecake. A half inch of water is usually enough.

[@happyfamilylifescreations]

oh yes..i love the way they say it in the end..its awesome onlu!

[@auroras8505]

*causally binge watching the entire playlist*

[@irinack]

I made this and was quite unhappy with how it turned out, but it might have been the ingredients I used. The crust is waaay too thin and the actual cheesecake was very, very light in color. It didn't even come close to what was in the video and I tried using double the amount of chocolate to make it darker. I would recommend using quite a few more ingredients for the crust or getting thicker cookies. I had used original oreos. Also, the amount of topping in the recipe is way too much. After pouring it over the cake I had half of it left still and used it to drizzle once I cut the slices for serving. You could probably only use 2/3 of the ingredients for the actual cheesecake part and it would be fine.

[@tamark773]

I have just finishes making this (first tasty recipe I'm making) and it is great but I would next time put les cream cheese because if I wouldn't add more chocolate than needed it would taste very cream cheesy and less chocolate but over all it's a good recipe!

[@niyatitummala7933]

OK tonight I'm gonna dream of this for sure ... a choc cheesecake yehey

Okay but that slice action was sexy as hell.

I wanna eat it soooo bad!!!😋😋

[@mechellemcbride]

Napoleon built this cheesecake for Deb!!

[@AndreSewellRS]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't putting whipped cream in the oven just cause it to melt and go flat; causing it to lose all the air you whipped into it? Wouldn't egg whites have been a better option?

[@whydoesgoogleletyouhavesuc165]

hello tasty my old friend I've come to watch your videos again

[@khanhlingcung5281]

very nice and so yummy

[@darien23451]

The tiny words at 1:09 that say *cool completely are a tad important. I learned the hard way that this means: chill in the refrigerator OVERNIGHT. It will not set if you skip this step, and you will have a very mushy chocolate mousse cake if you try to serve it the same day.. :(

[@ShreesRecipes]

Nice recipe, As I always said for you 10 on 10 plating 👍👌

[@marzipan9428]

Mmmm the thumbnail got me hungry, forget anything else!! Now I need chocolate.

[@barbarakulbe3163]

Its amazing

[@farahkhan3837]

Hi, I love your recipes mostly the 4 sliders sandwich video I'm going to make all of those soon during the break. Can you plz make chocolate marble bread -Thank you so much

[@riafelreyes8901]

the music is so cute :3

[@rtheobal]

that looks really good!

[@moka4086]

Tips to make it less sugary (considering I see only comments on the amount of sugar): -Omit sugar in the oreo crust -Use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet -Reduce sugar in cream cheese filling to 1 cup -Omit sugar in the whipped cream -Omit the chocolate coating I'm sure the cake will be delicious without all that extra sugar!

[@lucapeyrefitte6899]

Myriam Mailloux that's most likely how I would do it cuz dark chocolate gives more chocolate goodness 😋

[@joelfernandes3979]

Thats exactly what i was thinking

[@angelab1147]

yes

[@ollie6563]

Question: Why whip the cream before incorporating if it's going to melt back down to liquid the second it goes in the oven?

[@lucapeyrefitte6899]

Ollie cuz they're weird
