The cheesecake that we bring today is super creamy , you have been warned. Also, the creamy ricotta combined with sweet berries and white chocolate is a perfect combination that you are sure to love.

This is a delicious dessert, also ideal to accompany tea or a good coffee in the afternoon.

We prepare it in the low casserole-type cocotte , since it is easy to fill the walls with the biscuit preparation that gives it consistency, the baking will be homogeneous and fast and we can cut the cake directly in it without problem or fear of grating it when we go to serve it, and there is a spectacular presentation, I think it is obvious.


Le Creuset Evolution Low Casserole Cocotte and Le Creuset Ceramic Ramekins


Ingredients (for 4-6 people)

For the crust:

  • 200gr of digestive biscuits
  • 80g desiccated coconut, toasted
  • 125g of melted butter

For the filling:

  • 250g of good quality cream cheese ( Philadelphia type)
  • 125g ricotta (or cottage cheese)
  • 150g of icing sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 dessert spoons of cornmeal
  • 2 teaspoons of water
  • 100g of melted white chocolate
  • 125gr of fresh berries or a variety of red fruits

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  2. To make the pie crust, blend the cookies into a blender or food processor until they become fine crumbs. Then mix with the desiccated coconut and butter until you get a homogeneous mass.
  3. Ready the base, we line the mold with it: press the mixture of cookies, coconut and butter in the base of the mold and sides of the Le Creuset casserole cocotte to form a crust.
  4. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until golden. Remove from the oven, then allow to cool completely before adding the filling.
  5. To make the filling, reduce the heat of the oven to 160°C.
  6. Put cream cheese, ricotta, sugar, lemon zest and juice, vanilla, and eggs in a blender or processor until smooth and well blended.
  7. Mix the cornmeal and water in a bowl until completely combined, then add to the cheese mixture in the mixer , along with the melted white chocolate. Process until evenly combined.
  8. Pour over the cookie base that you have prepared in the mold and distribute the berries on top. Bake for 45 - 55 minutes, until it is golden in color and you can see that it has puffed in the middle.
  9. Let cool at room temperature for 1 hour before serving (although served cold the next day I assure you it's even better).

Hola!
Los frutos rojos se añaden al salir del horno?

Claudia said:

Hola Eva, sí, la verdad es que tiene un pintón increíble :) En cuanto a hacer la tarta, sin duda puedes usar otros moldes! Usa uno de 22 o 24cm, puedes hacerlo en uno cerámico o en un antiadherente tradicional, verás que te va estupendamente. Saludos!

Hola Ana, una cucharadita normalmente se refiere a una cucharadita de café (esas tan chiquitas), luego hay las de postres y las cucharadas son cucharadas soperas. Saludos!

Hola Antonio, efectivamente, la harina de maíz se refiere a Maicena. Saludos! Verás qué rica sale!

Hola Marc Carmen, usa una de pequeña, la de 26cm para asegurar que sube en altura un poco (incluso si lo haces en otro molde que no sea una cocotte, puedes hacerlo en uno de 24cm). Saludos!

Buenos días,

¡¡Qué pinta!! No me puedo resistir…
Si no disponemos de molde de la cocotte tipo cacerola de Le Creuset, ¿se puede utilizar un molde antiadherente de tartas normal? ¿De qué medida?
Muchas gracias.

Un saludo

Ana said:

Hola, ¿hay diferencia entre las cucharaditas y las cucharadas de postre?
