Cheesecake with Ricotta, Mascarpone and White Chocolate

Every year for the birthday parties of my children I push myself to try new cakes and with new creams to stuff them. Last year for the 15th year of my daughter Clelia I made a cake that the guests loved very much, the delicious Marble cake.

This year I tried to make a cheesecake with a very light cream of ricotta, mascarpone and white chocolate covered with a layer of milk chocolate ganache, placed on a base made of cocoa and butter biscuits. It was also a success this year too.

Cheesecake with Ricotta, Mascarpone, and White Chocolate is a perfect dessert to make on any occasion, you can also make it for Thanksgiving, for Christmas, or to take home to friends.

Follow my steps, have fun decorating it, and personalize it to your liking and bring to the table a spectacular dessert with a creamy heart that will conquer everyone.
