Contest | Cheesecake of the Year
My husband is espresso obsesso and always talks about the burst of blueberry flavor after a particularly good espresso shot and so I made this cheesecake for his birthday.
Ingredients
- 2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1 bag chocolate covered blueberries
- 3 packages (250 grams each) softened Kraft Philadelphia cream cheese
- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 1 cup sour cream
- 5 eggs one at a time
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons ground fresh ethiopian yirgacheffe beans
- 8 oz melted chocolate chips at room temperature
Directions
- Mix chocolate wafer crumbs and butter.
- Press crumb mixture into base of parchment lined 10 inch spring form pan.
- Place chocolate covered blueberries at the edge all around the pan.
- Cover outside of pan with tin foil so it can be placed in a water bath.
- Heat oven to 350 F. Boil water for water bath.
- Beat softened cream cheese and sugar.
- Add sour cream, eggs (one at a time) and vanilla.
- Mix until just blended.
- Put 1/2 cup filing in a piping bag with a #12 tip set aside.
- Add to remaining filling the ground ethiopian yirgacheffe beans and melted chocolate.
- Pour chocolate filling in pan.
- Pipe leaf pattering on top of chocolate filling and drag a knife through it starting at the top to mimic latte art.
