A cheesecake in Three dreamy flavors!

Photobucket

If I had to post a Chocolate cheesecake recipe, you would all be happy, right? If I had to post a Caramel cheesecake recipe, you would all go wild, 'cause you all love Dulce de Leche, but if I had to post another vanilla cheesecake recipe, you would all be board stiff........another cheesecake recipe?????
Today, however, I am going to blow you minds with a Chocolate, Caramel and Vanilla cheesecake, yip you read it.....three delicious flavors all in one. Here's what you need:

200gr ginger biscuits
100gr butter, melted

500ml cream
1 tin Dulce de Leche
100gr good quality dark chocolate - melted
1 tin condensed milk
juice of 2 lemons
250gr cream cheese - make sure it is at room temperature
3 sheets of gelatin
Vanilla extract

Make a biscuit base with the biscuits and butter and line the base of a spring form pan.
Soften the gelatin in a bowl with some cold water. When soft, place the bowl in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until gelatin has dissolved. Cool slightly.
Squeeze the juice of the lemons and add to the condensed milk in a bowl.Stir until it thickens.
Add the cream cheese and let it rest while you whip the cream until stiff. Now add the cream cheese mixture to the cream and gently fold it in. Fold in the gelatin...a little bit at a time.
Divide your cheesecake mixture into three bowls.
Bowl no 1. Add the melted chocolate.
Bowl no 2. Add the Dulce de Leche
Bowl no 3. Add some vanilla extract
Slowly start pouring the layers into the prepared pan, 1 flavor at a time. Be very gentle and try not to have to spread the mixture or else the colors will blend.

Ps. The photographs are not great, but I had the pressure of "wandering little fingers and a salivating husband" to deal with.
