Method

1

Crush the cookies into fine crumbs and mix with the melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a parchment-lined springform pan. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or freeze for an hour.

2

Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the powdered sugar and heavy cream.

3

Pour the filling into the crust and bake at 130 °C (265 °F) for about 2 hours. Let it cool, then refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours.

4

Sauté the kataifi pastry in butter until golden brown. Stir in the pistachio paste while the pastry is still warm to create a fragrant, sticky mixture.

5

Spread the pistachio topping evenly over the chilled cheesecake, pressing down gently with a spoon.

6

Whisk the melted chocolate with heavy cream, let it cool slightly, and pour over the top. Garnish with crushed pistachios.

7

Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (overnight is best).
