2. Ingredients

200g digestive biscuits or graham crackers, crushed
100g unsalted butter, melted
300g cream cheese, softened
200g pure mint chocolate or high-quality mint chocolate chips
150ml heavy cream
100g powdered sugar
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
Few drops of green food coloring (optional for vivid color)
Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Chocolate shavings or chocolate curls for decoration

3. Step-by-step Instructions

Preparing the crust

Begin by combining the crushed digestive biscuits with the melted butter in a bowl. Mix until well combined. Press this mixture firmly into the底 of a 9-inch springform pan to form a solid crust. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set.

Making the filling

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the mint chocolate chips until smooth. Allow to cool slightly. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the melted mint chocolate and peppermint extract, and mix thoroughly. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture. Add a few drops of green food coloring, if desired, for a striking green hue.

Assembling the cheesecake

Pour the mint chocolate filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm.

Decorating and serving

Once set, decorate the top with chocolate shavings, fresh mint leaves, or additional chocolate curls. Slice and serve chilled for a refreshingly rich mint chocolate experience.

4. Storage Tips

Store the Slytherin Emerald Mint Chocolate Cheesecake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain its freshness. For longer storage, you can freeze slices wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and foil for up to 1 month. Remember to let frozen slices thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

5. Serving Suggestions

This green cheesecake pairs beautifully with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce. It makes a stunning centerpiece for themed parties or special occasions. For an extra magical touch, serve with a side of fresh berries or a mint sprig to enhance the refreshing mint flavor.
