Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 170°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare the filling: combine cream cheese, heavy cream (100 g), stevia, and eggs. Blend until smooth.

Melt the sugar-free milk chocolate in the microwave. Add it to the cream cheese mixture and stir to combine.
7
Chop the sugar-free dark chocolate (60 g) with a knife. Fold it into the cream cheese mixture.

Pour the filling into the mold with the crust. Bake at 170°C for 1 hour 20 minutes. After baking, leave the cheesecake in the open oven for 20 minutes, then remove and let it cool completely at room temperature.
