Bruno Feldeisen’s Candy Cane Cheesecake

Ingredients:
For the base:
375 mL (1½ cups / ¾ sleeve) ground graham crackers
75 mL (1/3 cup) brown sugar
90 mL (6 Tbsps) butter
2 mL (½ tsp) ground ginger
2 mL (½ tsp) ground cinnamon
For the cheesecake:
625 mL (2½ cups / 2½ pkgs) cream cheese
175 mL (¾ cup) brown sugar
2 large eggs
125 mL (½ cup) sour cream
250 mL (1 cup) crushed candy canes

Method:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a medium bowl, mix by hand the ground graham crackers, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon and the ground ginger.
Add the melted butter and stir until combined.
Transfer the base mixture to a parchment-lined and greased, 8-inch (20-cm) springform pan.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool at room temperature.

For the cake:
Lower the oven temperature to 260°F (125°C).
Beat the cream cheese at low speed until soft.
Beat in the brown sugar, eggs and, sour cream.
Beat until the mixture is smooth and lump free.
Fold in the crushed candy canes.
Fill the cake pan and place on a baking sheet.
**Bake for about 35 - 40 minutes at 260°F (125°C).

** This temperature seemed low, and the baking time seemed short to me (Glen), but that's what Bruno insists... I needed to cook almost double the amount of time, and then I left it in the oven (with the oven off) for another hour to cool slowly.

Ingredients
For the base
200 g | 7oz gingersnap biscuits
100 g | 3 ½ oz unsalted butter , melted
Cheesecake filling
200 g | 7oz white chocolate chips or chocolate bar , chopped
480 ml | 2 cups double cream (heavy cream)
200 g | 2 cups icing sugar (powdered sugar)
2 tsp vanilla paste or extract
500 g | 17oz or 2 cups mascarpone or full fat cream cheese
⅛ tsp orange extract (or use your favourite)
To decorate
White chocolate truffles
Candy Cane

Instructions
Put the white chocolate chips in ceramic bowl and place over a pot of barely simmering water (the bottom of the bowl shouldn’t touch the water). Allow the chocolate to melt slowly, stirring until completely smooth. Set aside to cool.
Put your cookies into a mini food processor and pulse until finely ground. Alternatively put them in a ziplock bag and use a rolling pin to smash them (gently) into crumbs. Add the melted butter and mix together.
Spray the sides of a 7inch (or 8 inch) tin with cake release and line with baking paper. Line the bottom of the tin with paper (but don’t spray it). Tip the cookie crumbs into the tin and use your hands to press down until evenly packed. If you are using the smaller tin you might not need to use them all. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
Use a hand mixer to whisk the cream, icing sugar and vanilla together. Start mixing on low speed and increase gradually until the cream holds peaks. Don’t overmix! Transfer 100g into a piping bag fitted with a large star tip and put in the fridge. Put the rest into a bowl.
Use the same mixing bowl for the cream to beat the mascarpone cheese until it has softened. Add the cooled melted white chocolate and any extracts. Beat again, on low speed, until combined.
Use a large metal spoon or spatula to gently fold the whipped cream into the bowl until the filling is smooth.
Add the filling over your chilled cookie base and level with a spatula. Tap the tin on the counter so that it settles. Put in the fridge for 8 hours or – ideally – overnight to chill and set.
Run a small knife under hot water and wipe dry. Run the knife blade against the tin edge to loosen the cheesecake. Place the tin over a glass and carefully push down to release the cheesecake. Peel the paper off and use a bench scraper to smooth the sides if needed.
Pipe the remaining cream over the cheesecake and decorate with white chocolate truffles, festive sprinkles etc or use fresh fruit such as raspberries. Enjoy! #candycanecheesecake
