2 cups of crumbs made from graham crackers
a half cup of butter that has been melted
half a cup of sugar in granulated form
The layer of cream cheese:
16 ounces of cream cheese, softened, divided into two packages
Powdered sugar equaling one cup
A teaspoon’s worth of extract of vanilla
a cup of heavy cream that has been whipped
The Layer of Chocolate:
1 and a half cups of chocolate chips that are semi-sweet
Half a cup of pure heavy cream
Crust preparation instructions are as follows:
Put the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar into a bowl of medium size and mix them together. After thoroughly combining, mix.
A crust should be formed by pressing the ingredients firmly onto the bottom of a baking dish that measures 9 inches by 13 inches. Put away for later.
Put together the layer of cream cheese:
The cream cheese that has been softened should be beaten in a large mixing bowl until it is smooth and creamy.
Mix the vanilla essence and powdered sugar into the cream cheese and continue to beat until the ingredients are completely combined.
After whisking the heavy whipping cream in a separate bowl until it forms firm peaks, set it aside.
Work the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in a gentle manner until it is completely incorporated.
The cream cheese mixture should be spread out evenly over the crust that has been made. A spatula should be used to smooth the top. For the best results, refrigerate for at least half an hour.
Make sure the chocolate layer is ready:
The heavy cream should be heated in a small saucepan over medium heat until it reaches a point where it starts to boil. Take away from the heat.
The semi-sweet chocolate chips should be added to the hot cream, and more stirring should be done until the chocolate has fully melted and the liquid is smooth.
After allowing the chocolate mixture to somewhat cool, pour it over the cream cheese layer that has been cooled in the refrigerator. Using a spatula, spread the mixture out evenly.
Refrigerate and serve:
Place the dessert in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or until the chocolate coating has completely solidified.
Cut the cake into squares after it has set, and serve it cold.
Suggestions for the Absolutely Ideal Chocolate Cream Cheese Dessert:
Softened Cream Cheese: Before beginning to combine, make sure that your cream cheese is at room temperature. This will help you obtain a smooth and creamy consistency.
To give the cream cheese layer some structure, be sure to whisk the cream until it forms firm peaks. This will ensure that the cream cheese layer is structured.
Time Required for Cooling: In order to obtain clean and well-defined layers, it is important to give each layer sufficient time to set in the refrigerator.
If you want to indulge in something sweet at any time of the day, you may enjoy this dessert as a lovely way to conclude your meal. Happy baking to you!
