How To Make the best chocolate ricotta cheesecake
-
Step 1In pan, heat cream. Add chocolate chips and stir until chocolate is melted. Do this over low heat so that chocolate does not scorch. Beat together remaining ingredients until blended. Beat in melted chocolate. Pour into prepared crust and bake at 350 for about 55 minutes or until a cake tester inserted 1 inch off center, comes out clean. Do not overbake. Allow to cool in pan and then refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. Overnight is better. Decorate top with chocolate curls. Remove from refrigerator 20 minutes before serving. Serves 12 To make chocolate curls, run a vegetable peeler down the sides of a chocolate bar that is at room temperature. Source: Renny Darling
