CHEESECAKE-CHOCOLATE PUDDING BARS



Cheesecake-Chocolate Pudding Bars image

You may know it as chocolate delight or chocolate lush, but while this dessert has many names, the recipe rarely varies. Traditionally, it starts with a salty nut base, followed by a mixture of cream cheese and Cool Whip, a layer of boxed-mix chocolate pudding, and then even more Cool Whip. This from-scratch version starts with a crumbly pecan shortbread, which adds texture and salt. The homemade pudding tastes of deep, dark chocolate and serves as the perfect contrast to the simple no-bake cheesecake layer. Gilding the lily with freshly whipped cream and chocolate shavings isn't imperative, but it certainly takes it to another level.

Time 6h30m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2/3 cup/86 grams all-purpose flour
2/3 cup/80 grams finely chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons/76 grams unsalted butter, melted
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup/62 grams confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup/187 milliliters cold heavy cream
3 ounces/85 grams bittersweet or semisweet bar chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons/75 grams granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups/375 milliliters whole milk
3 large egg yolks
1 cup/250 milliliters cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
Chocolate shavings (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine the flour, pecans, salt and melted butter; mix with a fork until everything is evenly moistened. Tip the mixture into an 8-by-8-inch baking dish and spread into an even layer. Press the mixture into a flat, even layer using your fingertips. Bake until dry and golden, about 25 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • While the crust cools, prepare the cheesecake layer: In a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium, beat the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until fluffy and smooth, about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer on medium until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Spread evenly over the prepared crust. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Prepare the pudding: Set the chopped chocolate and butter in a medium bowl. Place a fine-mesh sieve over the bowl and set aside. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt. Add the milk, little by little, while whisking to incorporate it fully. Whisk in the egg yolks.
  • Heat the mixture over medium, whisking constantly, until it has thickened and just come to a low boil. Continue to cook the pudding, whisking, for another minute, then immediately pour it into the sieve, pushing it through with a small spatula. Let the pudding stand for 1 minute, then whisk it with the butter and chocolate until smooth. Refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour. (To speed up the process, spread the pudding into an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Stir often until the pudding has cooled, about 10 minutes.)
  • Whisk to remove any lumps that may have formed while cooling. Dollop the cold pudding over the top of the cheesecake. Carefully spread the pudding out into an even layer. Cover and chill until set, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
  • Whip the remaining heavy cream and confectioners' sugar to stiff peaks. Spread on top of the pudding. Garnish with chocolate shavings and cut into squares to serve.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE



Triple Chocolate Cheesecake image

This cheesecake is impressive to look at and to eat. The steps are easy but it takes some time to prepare. However, it freezes beautifully for up to a month, so it can be prepared far in advance of your event. I have made this cheesecake many times as a birthday cake. Use a high quality chocolate in this recipe, not chocolate chips or baking chocolate. Try Valrhona, Callabeut or Lindt, which you can get at many grocery stores. Lindt bars come in 3 oz. bars. Also, this cake must bake at the temperature directed or it will be raw in the middle and overdone on the edges.

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 3h45m

Yield 1 ten inch cheesecake

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs or 2 cups cake crumbs
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 lbs cream cheese, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
4 large eggs
3 ounces white chocolate, chopped fine
3 ounces milk chocolate, chopped fine
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped fine

Steps:

  • Mix the cookie or cake crumbs with the sugar and melted butter.
  • Press firmly into the bottom of a 10" springform pan with 2" sides.
  • Wrap the bottom of the pan in aluminum foil so that the foil comes up the side of the pan.
  • Turn the oven onto 300 degrees F.
  • ,and ready a large pan, deep that the springform pan will sit comfortably in.
  • In the bowl of your mixer with the paddle attachment, on low speed, beat the cream cheese until very soft.
  • Add the sugar and sour cream and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
  • Slowly add the eggs, one at a time, mixing until completely incorporated.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl before adding the next egg.
  • After the last egg is incorporated, mix, still on low speed, for 1 minute more, scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix another 30 seconds.
  • Split the batter evenly between 3 bowls.
  • Put the chocolates in 3 seperate microwavable bowls.
  • Microwave the dark chocolate at 50% power for one minute, mix until completely melted, then thoroughly mix into 1/3 of the cream cheese mixture.
  • Melt the milk and white chocolates at 30% power for 1 minute each and mix each one until they are completely melted, then mix each one into 1/3 of the cream-cheese mixture.
  • Pour the dark chocolate batter carefully into the prepared springform pan.
  • Shake the pan slightly to settle the mixture.
  • Now carefully spoon over (don't pour!) the white chocolate mixture, again shaking very slightly to even it out, the top with the milk chocolate mixture.
  • Place the pan carefully into your deeper pan, the place both pans on your oven rack.
  • Pour very hot water around the springform pan so that it comes half-way up the sides.
  • Shut the oven door and let the cheesecake bake for about 2 1/2 hours.
  • When it is done, the sides will be set but the center will still be jiggly, like jello.
  • Don't worry- it will set fully during refrigeration.
  • Remove from the oven, remove the springform pan from the water bath, and remove the foil.
  • Let cool on a rack then refrigerate overnight or at least 8 hours.
  • You can also wrap the cheesecake tightly in 2 layers of plastic and freeze for a month.
  • To serve, remove the cake from the springform pan, slice into 16 pieces, and serve with chocolate sauce and a few raspberries.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly affect the flavor of your cheesecake bars. Opt for high-quality chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a dense, dry cheesecake. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake bars in a water bath: This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking and will also ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Chill the cheesecake bars thoroughly before serving: This will help them to set properly and will also make them easier to cut.
  • Serve the cheesecake bars with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include fresh berries, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce.

Conclusion:

Triple chocolate cheesecake bars are a delicious and decadent dessert that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can create a cheesecake that is sure to impress your friends and family.
