How to make Chocolate Peanut Butter Yum Cheese Cake ?

By

 

Yields: 15-20 pieces


Crust Ingredients:

  1. 1 pack (32) of peanut butter sandwich cookies, processed into crumbs
  2. 5 and 1/3 tablespoons butter, melted

Cheesecake Ingredients:

  1. 4 packages (8 oz. each) of cream cheese, room temperature
  2. 1 cup sugar
  3. 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  4. 4 eggs, room temperature
  5. 3 (1oz) squares semisweet bakers chocolate (melted and cooled)

Peanut Butter Mousse Ingredients:

  1. 1/2 teaspoon powdered gelatin
  2. 2 tablespoons cold water
  3. 1 cup heavy cream
  4. 2 large egg yolks
  5. 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  6. 3 tablespoons salted smooth peanut butter


Method :


  1.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. For the crust, mix the crust ingredients together and press into bottom and up the sides (about 3 inches) of a spring form pan. Set aside.
  2. For the cheesecake: Mix cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl until well blended and creamy. Add the eggs and continue mixing until combined. Add chocolate and continue mixing until combined. Pour mixture into prepared crust and smooth top with a spatula.
  3. Bake for 55 minutes or until center of cake is almost set. The top may crack, but it doesn’t particularly matter, since you’ll be covering it anyway. Let the cake fully cool. When almost cool, place it in refrigerator to chill while you prepare peanut butter mousse.
  4. For peanut butter mousse, dissolve the gelatin over the water in a small bowl and let stand for 5 minutes. In a saucepan over moderate heat, cook the cream until it bubbles around the edges. In another bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar. Temper the eggs: pour about 1/2 cup hot cream into the egg yolks slowly while whisking vigorously. Then slowly pour the egg mixture into the saucepan of cream (whisking constantly). Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the peanut butter and the gelatin. Place mixture into a wide bowl to allow it to cool for a bit, then chill it for just a little while — not until set, but until it’s not so runny. Pour the mixture onto the top of the pie and refrigerate at least one hour or overnight. You can pipe on melted chocolate and decorate with chopped Reese’s cups, if desired.
  5. When completely chilled, loosen the cake from rim of springform pan by wrapping the pan in warm dishtowels. The remove the springform pan. Refrigerate the cheesecake for one day or overnight before serving. Garnish with fresh whipped cream if desired.
