Ingredients You’ll Need

200 g de galletas sin gluten: Because we want everyone to join this party—even friends who are gluten-free.
100 g de mantequilla derretida: Butter makes everything better, and I won’t apologize for that.
400 g de queso crema: The star of the show—can we get a round of applause for the cream cheese, please?
200 g de chocolate negro derretido: Because anything with dark chocolate automatically sounds fancy.
1 taza de café fuerte: Trust me, every good dessert should have a caffeine boost.
3 huevos: Yep, the classic trio of eggs for that perfect texture.
1/2 taza de edulcorante (ej. eritritol): Sweetness without the sugar guilt—because life is about moderation, right?
1 cucharadita de extracto de vainilla: Vanilla is basically the fairy godmother of desserts.
Una pizca de sal: Yes, a pinch. We’re not making soup here.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Precalienta el horno a 175°C. This is where you set your oven to work. Do it now so you don’t forget later.
Mezcla las galletas sin gluten trituradas con la mantequilla derretida y presiona en el fondo de un molde para pie. Use your hands or a spoon—whatever feels good. Just make sure it’s packed tight.
En un bol grande, bate el queso crema con el edulcorante hasta que esté suave. This is where our cheesecake dreams begin. Creamy is the goal here.
Agrega el chocolate derretido, el café y el extracto de vainilla; mezcla bien. Seriously, this is your moment. Make sure all those flavors become best friends.
Añade los huevos uno por uno, batiendo después de cada adición. Feel like a pro chef yet? If the batter splatters a bit, consider it art.
Vierte la mezcla sobre la base de galleta. Look at you, being all fancy with layers. Don’t be shy now.
Hornea durante 40-45 minutos, o hasta que esté firme. Your kitchen should start smelling incredible by this point.
Deja enfriar antes de servir. Patience, my friend. Good things come to those who wait.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Thinking you don’t need to preheat the oven: Rookie mistake. If you skip this step, your tarta will end up more like a sad puddle than a delicious dessert.
Using room temperature eggs: Seriously, don’t get lazy. Cold eggs can mess with your cheesecake vibe.
Forgetting to let it cool: I get it, the aroma is intoxicating. But if you cut into it while it’s still warm, it might fall apart like your New Year’s resolutions.
Not measuring ingredients properly: Science is at play here, so eyeballing it isn’t going to cut it. Use a scale or measuring cups—trust me.

Alternatives & Substitutions

Feeling adventurous? Here are some simple alternatives that can make your life easier:

Galletas sin gluten: Got a gluten-lover in the house? Use regular cookies instead. Your call.
Mantequilla: Vegan butter works just as well if you need that dairy-free option. Still yields amazing results!
Queso crema: If you’re feeling bold, try a flavored cream cheese. Think strawberry. Why not?
Eritritol: You could use sugar or honey, but don’t blame me if the calories make you cry—just saying.

My personal favorite twist? Swap the coffee for a spoonful of espresso for a more intense coffee kick. Can we say boosted vibes?

FAQ

Can I use margarine instead of butter?

Well, technically yes, but why hurt your soul like that? Butter is king.

How do I store leftovers?

If you have any leftovers (lucky you), just pop it in the fridge. It keeps well for a few days.

Can I freeze this cheesecake?

Oh, totally. Wrap it up tight and you’ll have a creamy pick-me-up whenever you need it.

Why does the top crack?

Welcome to the world of baking. Sometimes it happens, but it won’t affect the taste. Just think of it as a little character for your tarta.

Can I make this without the coffee?

Sure, if you don’t want to be my friend anymore. Just kidding. You can substitute with milk or simply skip it for a sweeter flavor.

What if I don’t like dark chocolate?

Use milk chocolate! But I’ll be secretly judging you for creating a less sophisticated dessert.

Can I add toppings?

Absolutely. Whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or even berries will kick it up a notch.
