    Not long ago I published a blogpost about cheesecake – you can find it here (it’s in German only, sorry). I am giving advice on how to make the perfect cheesecake.

    With this one I made everything wrong! :P

    First of all I used a tin that was a bit too small – the recipe is asking for a 8 inch tin, but I thought I wanted to try a smaller one with 7 inches. Big mistake. There was just too much of the cheesecake mixture in the tin, very high. It was impossible to get the cake baked all through in the time mentioned in the recipe, so I had to extend the time – this caused the cheesecake to blow up and crack on top. It would have probably worked if I had baked it in several steps (like I suggest in my blogpost) ;)

    BUT – I was lazy and did not want to spend too much time on this one…. well now I know I should have taken the time. Well – but as you can see – whipped cream helps a bit with the looks ;) Oh and the taste – was good. White chocolate and passion fruit work well together! So if you want to make this cake – stick to the recipe – no experiments!

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch

    1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180°C). Line a 8 inch (20cm) springform tin with baking parchment and grease. Set aside.

    2. Melt the butter, mix with the crushed bisquits and fill into the springform tin. Press to the bottom with the back of a spoon to form a base. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool down. Reduce the temperature of the oven to a 300°F (150°C).

    3. Heat the heavy cream and pour over the chopped white chocolate. Stir until you get a smooth mixture. Set aside.

    4. In a large bowl mix creamcheese, mascarpone, sugar, vanilla extract and egg yolks until well combined. Add the white chocolate mixture and passion fruit pulp and mix until well combined.

    5. In a second bowl whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the egg whites into the batter and mix until smooth. Pour over the base and smooth out the surface a bit. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until set but with a slight wobble in the centre. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake to cool inside for 1 hour, with the door ajar. Chill in the fridge overnight.

    6. Whip the heavy cream and spread over the cake – decorate with passion fruit pulp and seeds.

    1. Den Ofen auf 180°C (350°F) vorheizen. Eine 20cm (8 inch) Springform mit Backpapier auslegen und einfetten. Zur Seite stellen.

    2. Butter schmelzen und mit den zerbröselten Keksen verrühren. Alles in die Form füllen und mit der Rückseite eines Löffels zu einem glatten Boden festdrücken. Im Ofen für 10 Minuten backen. Herausnehmen und abkühlen lassen. Die Temperatur des Ofens auf 150°C (300°F) reduzieren.

    3. Die Sahne erhitzen und über die gehackte weiße Schokolade schütten. So lange rühren, bis eine glatte Masse entstanden ist. Zur Seite stellen.

    4. In einer großen Schüssel den Frischkäse mit Mascarpone, Zucker, Vanille Extrakt und den Eigelben verrühren, bis eine glatte Masse entstanden ist. Geschmolzene Schokolade und Maracujasaft zugeben und verrühren.

    5. In einer zweiten Schüssel die Eiweiß aufschlagen, bis sie steif sind (aber nicht zu fest). Vorsichtig unter den Teig heben und zu einer glatten Masse verrühren. Auf den Keksboden geben und die Oberfläche etwas glätten. Für 50-60 Minuten backen – der Käsekuchen sollte fest geworden sein, aber sich in der Mitte noch ein wenig bewegen, wenn man die Form rüttelt. Den Ofen ausschalten und den Kuchen für 1 Stunde im Ofen stehen lassen – die Backofentür sollte dabei leicht geöffnet sein. Kuchen über Nacht im Kühlschrank stehen lassen.

    6. Sahne aufschlagen und auf dem Käsekuchen verteilen – mit etwas Saft und Kernen der Maracuja dekorieren.
