Graveyard Chocolate Cheesecake For Halloween

  1. Grab a bag, put the biscuits in it, seal it very well and start crushing them. I like to use my wooden dough roller, Daniel likes to hit them, sometimes I use the ice crusher, so feel free to use your favourite method.
  2. Melt the butter in a pan and wait until it's cold enough so you can touch it. Pour it over the crushed cookies, add 1 tbsp of sugar and mix with your hands. Spread the "dough" on the bottom of your springform pan and refrigerate until hard.
  3. Melt the chocolate au bain-marie and let it cool. Whip the cream until soft peaks form and add the cooled chocolate on top. Incorporate the cocoa powder and mix very well, but gently. But the bowl back on the bain-marie, because you will need the little bits of chocolate left on the bowl for decorating your Halloween cake.
  4. In a separate bowl mix the cream cheese and the remaining sugar on high speed, with a mixer. Fold into the chocolate mixture and mix very well until everything is combined.
  5. Using a spatula, put the cheese cream on top of the biscuits and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  6. Crush the Oreo cookies, this time using my method with the dough roller. You want to be gentle so you don't mix everything with the cream. The darkness of the cookies combined with a few patches of white from the cream will look like very real dirt. When fine enough drizzle the dirt on top of the cake, making sure that everything is covered.
  7. Grab a digestive cookie (or any cookie that looks like a grave stone) and break a little bit of one of the ends, to make it flat, so it stays better in the cheesecake. With a toothpick take a little bit of the chocolate left on the bowl that you used for the bain-marie and make little dots on the cookie. Put the sugar skulls and bones on top of the dot and let it set. The chocolates will act like a glue.
  8. Very gently put the cookies in the cheesecake and sprinkle some bones and skulls on top of the dirt. Refrigerate for another hour.
