Preparation Steps:
The Base

- Step 2 – Line a 12 hole muffin pan and distribute the mixture evenly into every hole. Using the back of a small spoon, press the mixture evenly. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
The Chocolate Cheese Filling
- Step 1 – Chop chocolate and melt in microwave. You can also use double boiler method. Set aside and leave until it has cool slightly before using.
- Step 2 – Add cream cheese into a bowl and using a handheld mixer, whisk on lowest speed just until it gets creamy. Now add in sugar, sour cream, vanilla and salt. Mix everything well.
- Step 3 – Now add in the melted chocolate and mix everything together. Set aside.
- Step 4 – Crack both eggs into another bowl and lightly whisk them. Add the eggs into cheese mixture and fold everything together with a spatula. Divide the batter evenly into the muffin pan.
- Step 5 – Bake in a preheated oven (no fan) at 285ºF (140ºC) for 25 minutes or until when you gently shake the pan, the surrounding of the cheesecakes has set and the center wiggles.
- Step 6 – Remove from the oven and cool completely before placing the pan in the fridge for min 8 hours.
Assembling
- Step 1 – Remove the cheesecake from the pan (use a knife or offset spatula to help lift them out). Peel the liners and place the cheesecakes on a serving plate. Drizzle some melted chocolate on top and sprinkle some chocolate shavings. Enjoy!
