Awesome Triple Chocolate Cheesecake Slice

Nat has been asking me to make a Toblerone Cheesecake for her for quite sometime, so did Hubby, as both of them love the Toblerone Cheesecake very much... Plus we still have 3 bags of Toblerone chocolate at home.. But, me, will likt to try baking another chocolate cheesecake that I had never tried before... I chanced upon this Women's Weekly Cheesecake book, that I bought a couple weeks ago.., A Triple Chocolate Cheesecake. So I decided to try this out. And I hope Nat will like this cheesecake...


Triple Chocolate Cheesecake

This is a baked cheesecake recipe, and the texture if the cheesecake is great. Well, it kinda taste more of a chocolate, rather than cheese I would say. My friends whom had tasted it say it was delicious and it was just simply chocolates.....


I thought, the cheesecake looks pretty good, and it is very easily prepared, no mess... So probably that's why I managed to take so many pictures for the post. :-D

The base, using chocolate chips cookies. The whole cookie is being used and the cookie is cut/trimmed to fill the edges/holes.

Below the white chocolate melted together with thick cream.
Below, creaming the cream cheese and sugar, followed by the egg, and the white chocolate mixture.

The base of the cheesecake, filled with the cheese fillings, and the chocolate ganache once the cheese filling has set.

And now, looking at this picture below, might explains why it is called Triple Chocolate Cheesecake?

1. Chocolate Chips Cookie base

2. White Chocolate Cheese filling
