How to Make the Crust:
  1. Preheat oven to 350F degrees
  2. In a large bowl, mix together butter and sugar until combined with a standing mixer
  3. Add in VADE chocolate scoops, milk, and vanilla and wait 1 min until liquid starts to dissolve protein film
  4. Add the rest of the ingredients and mixed until chocolate cookie dough has formed
  5. Press dough into a 8-inch springform pan, press the crust into the base and up the sides. Neaten the edges by trimming the crust with a knife. Set in the freezer to firm for 1 hour, then line with parchment paper, and fill with baking beans.
  6. Remove the pan from the freezer, and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the baking beans and paper, then return to the oven for another 10 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Set aside to cool.
How to Make the filling:

  2. Pour in the cheesecake mixture until 1/2 inch from the top of the crust. Cover the tin loosely with foil.
  3. Bake for 45 mins - 1 hour, or until center is just set. Leave to cool in the oven with the door closed for 2 hours. Then chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
How to Make the Ganache:
  1. Bring heavy cream to a simmer on the stove top, stirring occasionally. Just as soon as it starts to bubble, reduce heat and pour on top of the chocolate chips, swirling the bowl to make sure all chips are covered.
  2. Let sit for 5 minutes
  3. Stir chocolate chips with a whisk starting in the center and working outward until smooth and ganache has formed.
  4. Let sit uncovered at room temperature for about 10 minutes before spreading on top of cheesecake
