Chocolate cookie crust: Preheat the oven to 160 ° C. Brush a circular cake mold, removable about 22 cm. In a food processor, cut half of the cookies until medium crumbs are made. Repeat the procedure with the other half.

Cheesecake: Melt white chocolate and ½ cup of milk cream in a bain-marie. Cover with self-adhesive plastic. Leave on fire for 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and stir until melted. Reserve. Put the whipped cream cheese in the blender , 1 cup of sugar and salt. Beat at low speed for 1 minute, at medium speed for 1 minute and at high speed for another minute. Clean the edges of the bowl.

Remove the bowl from the blender . Mix with a silicone spatula until it is fully incorporated. Pour the mixture into the cake mold previously prepared.
