Triple Chocolate Cheesecake

Ok, I'm "dessert is a must" kind of person, but you may already know that!

Chocolate is my thing. And especially dark chocolate (which is rich in iron, magnesium and antioxidants.) So, although I enjoy a plain, traditional cheesecake, most of the times I prepare it with a chocolate twist. Also,I prefer a fridge and not an oven version of it. It's more delicate and with a lighter taste.

After years of experiments, bithday cakes and flavor changes, i reached the level that I want: the best balance of fresh cream cheese and chocolate biscuits, not so full of fat and ready in about an hour!

Here is the recipe. I warn you: you will need a double dose. Amen.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE

(for the crunchy base)

2 packs of chocolate cookies

1/2 cup melted butter

1/2 cup melted chocolate

(for the cream)

2 cups low fat cream cheese

1 cup strained yogurt 2%

2 spoons of sugar

vanilla extract

(for the chocolate magic top)

1/2 cup dark chocolate

1/2 cup white chocolate

some pieces of milk chocolate

1. Smash the cookies (ok, you can eat one or two..) with a blender.

2. Mix it with melted butter and chocolate and place it in a form, by making a flat base. Place it on fridge for 20 minutes.

3. Mix cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and yogurt until they reach a fluffy texture.

4. Place the cream mix over the cookie base, in a blended way.

5. Drop some melted white and dark chocolate on the top of cheesecake and with a knife start making swirls, until there is some amount of chocolate everywhere. Then put some pieces of milk chocolate. Place it on fridge for 1 hour and that's it!

*You can put some fresh fruits on top, like strawberries or peaches or bananas or you can serve it with some nuts and cookies. This cheesecake is sweet enough, so I wouldn't suggest any syrup or marmelade.

*It's got even better taste if you leave it longer on fridge and also if you let it 1-2 minute on room temperature before you eat it.

*Let your imagination free and inform me about your suggestions on cheesecake decoration.
