Quarter fill a saucepan with water and place over high heat.  Once it begins to boil rest the bowl with the eggs and sugar on top of the pan.  The bottom of the bowl should not be touching the water.   Beat the eggs with electric mixers until the eggs are frothy and hot to the touch (approximately 4 minutes).  Remove the bowl from the pan and plunge the base of the bowl into cold water to cool.  This process pasturizes the eggs and adds air to the cheesecake.<\/p>\n<p>In a medium sized bowl add the cold water to the gelatin, stir immediately and set aside.  <\/p>\n<p>Using an electric mixer beat the cream cheese until smooth, then mix in the melted chocolate. Heat the gelatine in the microwave until it is melted, being careful it does not boil over.  Pour the melted gelatine into the cream cheese mixture and whisk together.  Fold in the cooled egg mixture and then the cream.<\/p>\n<p>Pour onto the base in the lined container and refrigerate until set, add the ganache on top then decorate with chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>If you are making a tall cheesecake and you want to take it out of the container it is easiest if you put in the freezer for one hour.  Add the ganache or glaze on top and return to the freezer overnight or until the day it is needed.  Remove the frozen cheesecake from the container, put onto a plate, remove the baking paper, defrost in the fridge and then decorate with chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>SPHERE: To make cheese cake spheres pour mixture into hemishpere silicon moulds and freeze.  Once frozen join two halves together using a little extra cheesecake mixture to fill any gaps where they join.\u00a0 Dip the sphere into the glaze, lift out and place on an upturned medicine cup.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Decoration<\/strong><br \/>\nTo make your chocolate decorations line a tray with alfoil, place circles of tempered chocolate onto the tray and then spread it using the back of a teaspoon. Allow to set hard then place on top of cheesecakes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"align center size-large wp-image-2467\" title=\"chocolate cheesecake recipe\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/IMG_8740-1024x764.jpg\" alt=\"chocolate cheesecake recipes\" width=\"550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/IMG_8740-1024x764.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/IMG_8740-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/IMG_8740-60x44.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/\", \n  \"@type\": \"Recipe\", \n  \"name\": \"Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe\",\n  \"image\": \"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/IMG_8751-1024x764.jpg\",\n  \"description\": \"This chocolate cheesecake is the first recipe that I ever wrote out, complete with spelling mistakes like \u2018wisk the egg whites\u2019 and \u2018chill untill set\u2019.
