Crispy Rice Cereal Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-45676

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1/2 stick
10 ounces mini marshmallows
6 cups crispy rice cereal
8 ounces semisweet chocolate
1/4 cup heavy cream
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups whipped cream, divided
Chocolate bar, for shaving

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and stir until melted. Add the crispy rice cereal and stir to coat. While the crispy rice cereal mix is still warm, transfer them to a greased 10-inch (25 cm) springform pan. Using a greased measuring cup, press down into the cereal to form to the pan. Press the edges against the springform pan to create walls. Set aside. Place the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and pour the heavy cream on top. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted, about 1 minute. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Pour in the melted chocolate and stir to incorporate. Add 1½ cups (90 g) of whipped cream to the chocolate mixture and fold with a spatula until combined. Pour the cheesecake mixture into the crispy rice base and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or overnight, until the cheesecake is set. Release the springform. Put the remaining cup of whipped cream in a piping bag fitted with a star tip and decorate the top of the cheesecake. Use a vegetable peeler to shave the chocolate into the middle of the cheesecake. Slice and serve.

Time 2h35m

Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 15

Cooking spray
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 ounces mini marshmallows
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Kosher salt
4 cups crispy rice cereal
One 1/4-ounce packet unflavored powdered gelatin
Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup sour cream
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Kosher salt
2 cups mixed raspberries and blueberries, for topping

Steps:

  • For the crispy layer: Line a 9-inch square pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides. Lightly coat the foil and a wooden spoon with cooking spray.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the marshmallows, honey, vanilla and a pinch of salt, and stir with the prepared wooden spoon until the marshmallows have completely melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the rice cereal, and stir until the mixture is fully combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and press into an even layer. Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 20 minutes.
  • For the cheesecake layer: Meanwhile, combine the gelatin with 2 tablespoons water in a small microwave-safe bowl, and set aside to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Beat the cream cheese on medium-high speed in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or in a large bowl if using a hand mixer) until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the sour cream, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and a pinch of salt, and beat on medium high speed until incorporated and smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Microwave the gelatin until melted, stirring as needed, about 30 seconds. Add the gelatin to the cream cheese mixture, and beat on medium high speed to combine, about 30 seconds.
  • To assemble: Pour the cream cheese-gelatin mixture over the cooled crispy layer, and spread out evenly. Wrap the pan loosely with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until the cheesecake layer is set, about 2 hours. (The bars can be assembled and refrigerated overnight.) Cut into 16 bars, and top each with raspberries and blueberries before serving.
