  • 200 gram white chocolate
  • 500 gram full-fat quark (or thick Greek yogurt)
  • 150 gram powdered sugar
  • 250 ml whipping cream
  • 200 gram mixed chocolate Easter eggs (coarsely chopped)
For the topping:

  • Springform pan with an approx. 20 cm / 8 inch diameter
  • Piping tip/nozzle (e.g., Wilton 2D)

INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):

  • For the crust, mix the crumbled cookies with the melted butter until well combined.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan lined with parchment paper. Place in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
  • Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water.
  • Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler. Allow it to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, beat the quark with powdered sugar.
  • Heat the whipping cream and dissolve the squeezed gelatin sheets in it. Allow the whipping cream to cool slightly.
  • Add the melted white chocolate to the quark mixture and mix well.
  • Then, add the whipped cream and gelatin mixture to the quark mixture. Add the chocolate Easter eggs and mix again.
  • Pour the filling over the cooled base, then place it in the refrigerator for at least four hours (or overnight) to set.
  • For the topping, whip the whipping cream with powdered sugar until stiff.
  • Transfer the whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a nozzle.
  • Pipe swirls of whipped cream onto the chilled cheesecake.
  • Decorate the cake with chocolate Easter eggs and M&Ms. Enjoy!
Good to know:
The chocolate will sink to the bottom a little, which is fine, but if you want to prevent this, first roll the chocolate in flour, then mix it into the batter.
