Chocolate Truffel Cheesecake with a Cookie Crust

I improvised this cheesecake for an Iftar here in Munchen and it turned out to become very popular. I think it tastes a bit like soft ice cream- you know the one on the cone?

Besides being very fast to make, it doesn’t require any other equipment than a mixer, bowl and a microwave oven.
