30 minutes
Chocolate cookie cheesecake with berry sauce is a true masterpiece of American cuisine, combining the richness of the chocolate base, the tenderness of the white cheese layer, and the freshness of the berry sauce. Its origins trace back to classic cheesecake recipes, but the addition of chocolate cookies and white chocolate makes it particularly refined. The velvety texture of the cream enriched with mascarpone and ricotta perfectly complements the sweet tartness of fresh berries. This dessert is an ideal choice for a romantic dinner or festive gathering, creating a harmony of flavors and a delightful aftertaste. With its simple preparation technique, it suits both experienced pastry chefs and beginners looking to enjoy an exceptional treat. The cheesecake can be served chilled, allowing the ingredients to fully unfold.

For the base, we separate the cookies from the cream and grind them, then add melted butter, mix thoroughly, and press the mixture into a baking mold (I would use a 20 cm diameter mold, but since I was making the pie away from home, the mold was larger — it didn't ruin the cheesecake anyway). Once the podium for the cream is ready, we place the mold in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 5 minutes.
