Grease an 8 inch cake tin (can line it with greaseproof paper, if wished)

Melt Chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Once melted add the icing sugar and stir.

Mix the melted butter and crushed biscuits together and then press it evenly into the bottom of the cake tin. Chill in fridge for 15 mins.

Put mascarpone into a bowl and mix beat it to loosen it slightly, then add it to the chocolate mixture. Mix together quickly.

Spread onto the chilled biscuit base.

Chill for at least a couple of hours to allow it time to set. I usually leave mine overnight but it's depends if you can last that long without digging in.

This cheesecake is great on it's own......or how about defrosting some frozen forest fruits, sweeten with a little icing sugar and serve this with the cheesecake. Let me know what you think!
