Crispy Rice Cereal Chocolate Cheesecake

Instructions

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
• Add the marshmallows and stir until melted. Add the crispy rice cereal and stir to coat.
• While the crispy rice cereal mix is still warm, transfer them to a greased 10-inch (25 cm) springform pan.
• Using a greased measuring cup, press down into the cereal to form to the pan. Press the edges against the springform pan to create walls. Set aside.
• Place the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and pour the heavy cream on top. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted, about 1 minute.
• In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
• Pour in the melted chocolate and stir to incorporate.
• Add 1½ cups (90 g) of whipped cream to the chocolate mixture and fold with a spatula until combined.
• Pour the cheesecake mixture into the crispy rice base and smooth the top with a spatula.
• Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or overnight, until the cheesecake is set. Release the springform.
• Put the remaining cup of whipped cream in a piping bag fitted with a star tip and decorate the top of the cheesecake.
• Use a vegetable peeler to shave the chocolate into the middle of the cheesecake.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
