for the base
- 200 g of small digestive or small butter biscuits

Now, here are the different steps you will have to follow to make this Chocolate Cheesecake with a preparation time of 25 minutes and… without cooking but 4 hours of refrigeration
Start by preparing your biscuit by crumbling the small biscuits on one side and melting the butter on the other side. Let the butter cool then add it to the biscuits. Line the bottom of your removable mold (24 cm / 10 inch in diameter) with this mixture and press well into the bottom of the mold. Refrigerate.
Melt the chocolate in a bain marie. Then, in a large bowl of an electric mixer, put the cream cheese, icing sugar and mix well. Then add the melted chocolate and finally the whipped cream.
Mix everything gently and transfer everything into your mold with its biscuit base. Equalize and refrigerate.
Meanwhile, make your ganache by putting the whipping cream in a saucepan. Heat until it starts to boil. Take off the heat and add the chocolate all at once. Mix well until your chocolate is smooth and shiny.
Pour your ganache over the chocolate cake and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
Serve with fresh fruits and whipped cream if you like.
