How To Make White Chocolate, Mascarpone & Pistachio Cheesecake

This creamy and decadent cheesecake combines the sweetness of white chocolate with the rich flavor of mascarpone and the crunch of pistachios.

Preparation: 20 minutes

Cooking: 40 minutes

Total: 60 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

150g digestive biscuits
50g unsalted butter, melted
200g white chocolate, chopped
250g mascarpone cheese
200g cream cheese
100g powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
100g shelled pistachios, chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter and press into the base of a greased 20cm (8 inch) springform cake tin. Chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.
Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, mix together mascarpone cheese, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the melted white chocolate to the cheese mixture and mix well.
Pour the cheesecake mixture over the chilled biscuit base.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly wobbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Before serving, sprinkle chopped pistachios over the top of the cheesecake.
Slice and serve chilled.
