Decadent Mini Kinder Bueno Cheesecakes Recipe

Introduction

These Decadent Mini Kinder Bueno Cheesecakes are a perfect blend of creamy, crunchy, and chocolaty flavors. Ideal for parties or a special treat, they combine the rich taste of Kinder Bueno with a smooth cheesecake filling on a crispy cookie base.

Ingredients

• 180g chocolate chip cookies
• 40g melted butter
• 400ml heavy cream
• 200g cream cheese, softened
• 70g powdered sugar
• 85g Kinder chocolate bars
• 50g roasted and chopped hazelnuts
• 150g chocolate hazelnut spread
• 2 Kinder Bueno bars

Instructions

1. Step 1: Start by crushing the chocolate chip cookies into fine crumbs. Pour in the melted butter and mix thoroughly until the mixture resembles wet sand. Divide about 3 tablespoons of the cookie mixture into each dessert cup (this recipe makes 16 servings). Press down firmly using the bottom of another cup to create a flat base.
2. Step 2: In a bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and melted Kinder chocolate using an electric whisk until smooth. Add the cold heavy cream and continue whisking until the mixture begins to firm up. Transfer this cheesecake filling into a large piping bag.
3. Step 3: Pipe the cheesecake filling into each dessert cup over the cookie base, leaving a little space at the top for decorations. Tap the cups lightly on a flat surface to remove air bubbles and level the filling.
4. Step 4: Refrigerate the filled cups for 3-4 hours to allow the cheesecakes to set and develop flavor.
5. Step 5: Once set, add a tablespoon of chocolate hazelnut spread on top of each cheesecake. Sprinkle with roasted chopped hazelnuts and garnish each with a piece of Kinder Bueno. Serve and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

• For extra crunch, toast the hazelnuts lightly before chopping.
• You can substitute chocolate chip cookies with digestive biscuits for a slightly different base texture.
• If you prefer a less sweet dessert, reduce the powdered sugar by 10-20 grams.
• Try adding a few drops of vanilla extract to the cheesecake filling for additional depth of flavor.

Storage

Store the mini cheesecakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To enjoy, remove from the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving. Avoid freezing, as the texture may be compromised.
