Peanut Butter and Caramel Mug Cheesecake
Ingredients:
For the Base:
- 50g dry biscuits
- 25g butter
For the Cream:
- 1 egg
- 250g mascarpone
- 120g cream cheese
- 50-60g sweetener (sugar, honey, erythritol, etc.)
- 50g peanut butter
For the Caramel:
- 100g sugar
- 60g cream
- 45g butter
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Prepare the Base: Crush the biscuits into fine crumbs, mix with melted butter, and press into the bottom of heat-resistant mugs. Chill in the fridge.
- Make the Cream: In a bowl, mix mascarpone and cream cheese. In another bowl, beat the egg with the sweetener. Combine the egg mixture with the cheeses, then stir in the peanut butter. Pour the cream mixture over the biscuit base in each mug.
- Bake: Cook at 160°C in the middle rack of the oven for about 20 minutes, until the cheesecake is set but slightly wobbly in the center.
- Prepare the Caramel: Heat sugar in a saucepan without stirring, swirling occasionally to prevent burning. Warm the cream separately. Once the sugar is melted, turn off the heat, gradually add the cream while stirring. Mix in the salt. Finally, add the cold butter, stir, and let it cool. Pour over the cheesecakes.
