  • 400 ml Whole milk liquid cream (Very cold, 40 cl)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the biscuit base

    Grind the biscuits (Palet Breton + speculoos) into a very fine powder using a food processor. Add the melted butter, mix until a homogeneous dough forms.

    Time: PT10M

  2. Press the base into the pan

    Pour the biscuit mixture into the springform pan, only on the sides (the bottom remains empty). Press firmly with the back of a spoon or the bottom of a glass to obtain a compact, even layer.

    Time: PT5M

  3. Cool the base

    Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes (or 30 minutes in the refrigerator) so the base solidifies.

    Time: PT15M

  4. Prepare the cheese cream

    In the robot’s bowl, add the mascarpone, the cream cheese, the very cold liquid cream, the powdered sugar, the pistachio cream and the vanilla sugar. Whisk at medium then high speed until a firm, well‑aerated whipped cream forms.

    Time: PT10M

  5. First cream layer

    Remove the pan from the freezer. Spread half of the cheese cream over the biscuit base using a spatula. Smooth the surface.

    Time: PT5M

  6. Add the raspberries

    Arrange the fresh raspberries on the first cream layer, pressing them in slightly.

    Time: PT2M

  7. Second cream layer

    Fill a piping bag with the remaining cream and pipe onto the top of the cake, smoothing as much as possible.

    Time: PT5M

  8. Chill

    Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight, until the texture fully sets.

    Time: PT240M

  9. Prepare the pistachio‑chocolate glaze

    Melt the white chocolate and pistachio paste together in a bain‑marie or microwave (30 s at 50 % power, stir, repeat). Mix until a smooth texture is achieved.

    Time: PT5M

  10. Glaze the cheesecake

    Pour the glaze over the top of the cheesecake, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth as much as possible.

    Time: PT5M

  11. Final decoration

    Scatter the chopped pistachios around the rim of the pan. Add the reserved raspberries on top.

    Time: PT3M

  12. Final chill

    Return the cheesecake to the refrigerator for an additional 10 minutes so the glaze sets.

    Time: PT10M
