St. Patrick's Chocolate & Mint Cheesecake Bars image

In honor of my Irish heritage and maiden name, I am dedicating these to my children. My kids love mint and I put this recipe together for St. Patrick's Day a few years back. It turned out better then anticipated. I want to share with others this recipe and hope others enjoy this as much as my family does.

MINT CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE



Mint Chocolate Cheesecake image

I created this mint chocolate cheesecake for our high school's annual fundraiser. We were told that it brought a hefty price and was one of the first desserts to go! If desired, you can stir the cookie pieces into the batter instead of adding them in a layer. Keep the pieces fairly small or they have a tendency to rise to the top. -Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

185 g unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup cocoa, sifted
1 cup caster sugar
2 eggs
1 cup plain flour, sifted
50 g dark chocolate, melted, cooled
1/3 cup caster sugar
1 bunch mint, leaves picked
250 g cream cheese
3 eggs
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
100 ml thickened cream
2 -3 drops green food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 160°C and grease and line a 20cm square loose-bottomed cake pan with baking paper.
  • Place butter, cocoa, sugar, eggs and flour in a bowl and mix well to combine. Press firmly into the prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes or until set. Allow to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, for the mint topping, place sugar, mint and 1/2 cup (125ml) water in a saucepan over low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium and simmer for 3 minutes, then set aside to cool completely. Strain the sugar syrup into a jug, discarding the solids. Place the cream cheese in a food processor and whiz for a few seconds to soften. Add cooled sugar syrup, eggs, peppermint extract, cream and food colouring and process until smooth.
  • Pour the cheesecake mixture into cake pan then tightly wrap the base of the pan with foil to make it watertight. Place the cheesecake in a deep baking dish and fill with enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the cake pan. Bake for 25 minutes or until topping is just set - the cake may have a slight wobble but it will firm on cooling. Remove from the oven and cool completely, then chill for 2 hours or until firm.
  • Cut cheesecake into slices, drizzle over the cooled melted chocolate and serve.
