Ingredients
  

For the Base

  • 200 g chocolate biscuits crushed, for base
  • 100 g butter melted, for base

For the Cream

  • 200 g mascarpone cheese for cream
  • 200 ml fresh cream for cream
  • 80 g icing sugar for cream
  • 1 vial rum flavoring for cream
  • 2-3 tsp instant coffee dissolved in fresh cream
  • Nutella to taste, for cream

For Decoration

  • Nutella to taste, for decoration
  • coffee beans optional, for decoration

Instructions
 

Prepare the Biscuit Base

  • Crush the chocolate biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
  • Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter until well combined.
  • Line the base of a 20 cm round cake tin with baking paper.
  • Press half of the biscuit mixture evenly into the bottom to form the base.
  • Place the tin in the refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes to set.

Prepare the Coffee Cream

  • Dissolve the instant coffee in the fresh cream by stirring until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the mascarpone, icing sugar, and rum flavoring.
  • Gradually add the coffee-flavored cream to the mascarpone mixture.
  • Using an electric whisk, beat the mixture until it becomes firm and creamy.

Assemble the Cheesecake

  • Remove the chilled biscuit base from the fridge.
  • Pour half of the mascarpone coffee cream over the base and smooth it out with a spatula.
  • Add dollops of Nutella on top of the cream layer, swirling it slightly into the cream.
  • Add the remaining coffee cream on top and spread it evenly.
  • Finally, sprinkle the reserved biscuit crumbs over the top to create a crumbly topping.

Decorate and Chill

  • Drizzle Nutella over the top of the cheesecake for decoration and garnish with coffee beans (optional).
  • Let the cheesecake rest in the fridge for at least a few hours, preferably overnight, to allow it to set fully.

Notes

  • Ensure the coffee is fully dissolved in the cream before mixing to avoid lumps.
  • Chilling the cheesecake overnight helps it set properly and enhances the flavors.
