Peanut Butter Cheesecake

I'm not a fan of peanut butter to say the least. It's a foreign substance my taste buds can't figure out and no, the taste cannot be acquired. However, when in moderation it can actually be very good. Just like cilantro. I hate it and try to put it in my guac to get used to it but it will never work, I just know it. So peanut butter is something similar. It only works in small doses. This cake is proof of it. Cheesecakes rock and PB can't ruin the impression. On the contrary - it makes it less sweet which is great.

You'll need:
  • 180g biscuits
  • 1 large table spoon melted peanut butter
  • 200g cream cheese
  • 200g sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 150g peanut butter
  •  1/2 cup sugar
  • 100g dark chocolate
  • 2 table spoons peanut butter
  • a handful of chopped peanuts
1) Make crumbs from the biscuits and wet them with melted peanut butter. Press onto the bottom of your cake pan and bake for 10 minutes at 180°C.
2) Mix the cheese, cream, peanut butter and sugar. If you like the taste, add the egg. If not, add what you miss first and then add the egg. Pour onto the cooled crust and bake for 30minutes at 180°C.
3) Melt the chocolate over boiling water and add the peanut butter. Pour over the cooled cake and decorate with peanuts.
