2 cups Crumbled Graham Crackers
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 + 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 cups heavy whipping cream
453g cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1-2 teaspoons red food coloring
1/4 cup Greek yoghurt
Combine graham crackers, melted butter, cocoa powder, and granulated sugar in a bowl. Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan and line it with the crumb mixture to create the crust. Set in fridge for few hours.
Beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks. In a different bowl, beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, granulated sugar and cocoa powder to make a smooth creamy mixture.
Add vanilla, red food colouring, and Greek yoghurt to the cream cheese mixture and combine well. Then fold whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture.
Pour the filling into the set crumb and make the top smooth. Garnish with nuts and crumbs and set in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight. Once set, slice the cake and serve.
