Baked Marble Chocolate Cheesecake – VIDEO RECIPE
how to cook Baked Marble Chocolate Cheesecake?
STEP 1
To start, preheat your oven to 175°C (350⁰F). Now, let’s get our chocolate shortbread dough ready by following this recipe.
STEP 2
Grab a large bowl and place the egg yolks in it. Add the sugar and vanilla sugar, then pour in the orange juice. Give it a good stir.
TIPS: Not a fan of orange juice? No worries! You can easily substitute it with any other juice or even milk. Get creative and choose a flavor that tickles your taste buds.
STEP 3
Next, take the ricotta and add it to the sugar-egg mixture. Use an immersion blender to blend everything together until it becomes smooth and creamy.
TIPS: You can use cottage cheese instead of ricotta. But remember, the quality of your cottage cheese matters. Opt for a fatty, non-acidic, and not overly dried variety. This will ensure a velvety and tender texture for your filling. Trust me, it’s worth it!
TIPS: If you’re lacking an immersion blender, fear not. Simply rub the ricotta or cottage cheese through a fine sieve a couple of times until you achieve the desired consistency. Patience pays off!
STEP 4
Now, let’s divide the ricotta filling into two parts. Take one part and pour in the melted dark chocolate. This will give it a rich and decadent flavor.
TIPS: When working with melted chocolate, it’s important to let it cool down a bit. However, make sure it remains in a liquid state. This will ensure a smooth and glossy finish for your sweet treats.
TIPS: Wondering how to melt chocolate? You have two options: either use a water bath (a pan of simmering water) or pop it in the microwave. Both methods work like a charm, so go with whichever one suits your fancy.
STEP 5
In a separate medium bowl, place the room temperature egg whites. Add a pinch of salt and beat them with a mixer until they form stiff peaks. This will give our cheesecake a light and fluffy texture.
TIPS: Remember to take the eggs out of the refrigerator in advance so that the egg whites can reach room temperature. Cold egg whites don’t whip well.
STEP 6
Carefully fold in half of the beaten egg whites into the chocolate ricotta mixture, and the other half into the other ricotta mixture.
STEP 7
Grease a 22 cm springform pan with butter. Roll out the chilled dough into a circle and line the bottom of the pan with it.
TIPS: If you don’t have a springform pan, don’t worry! There are 4 alternative ways to replace it when baking.
TIPS: Want to achieve a perfect circle of your dough? Grab a regular plate or the side of a round springform pan that matches the desired diameter. Then, simply cut out the circle using a sharp knife. Easy peasy!
STEP 8
Now, it’s time to assemble our cheesecake. Place both ricotta fillings on top of the dough, alternating between the white and chocolate fillings. Create beautiful circles with the fillings.
STEP 9
Pop the cheesecake pan into the preheated oven at 175°C (350⁰F) and let it bake for about an hour. The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist!
TIPS: Looking for some helpful advice on how to preheat your oven and prepare it for baking? Look no further than my articles “How and Why Do You Need to Preheat Oven” and “Top 7 Secrets How to Bake in Oven”.
STEP 10
Once the cheesecake is done baking, take it out of the oven and let it cool completely. This step is important to ensure that the cheesecake sets properly.
TIPS: Don’t panic if the cheesecake jiggles a bit after baking. Once it cools down completely, it will set perfectly.
STEP 11
Once the cheesecake has cooled, remove it from the pan and get ready to add some finishing touches. Decorate the cheesecake with chocolate curls, adding a touch of elegance and extra chocolatey goodness.
STEP 12
Cut Baked Marble Chocolate Cheesecake into equal pieces and serve with tea. Bon appetit!
