Directions

Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat cream cheese, mascarpone, and mix on medium-high until smooth and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl.
In a separate bowl, whip cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Fill into prepared pie shell; smooth top. Refrigerate 4 hr or overnight.
To make ganache, in microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and remaining 2 tbsp cream. Microwave, uncovered, on high 30 sec, stirring halfway.
Pour ganache over chilled cheesecake. Return to fridge and let chill 30 min.

Recipe Note

Find prepared graham pie shells in the baking section of most grocery stores or use a frozen 9" pie crust. Follow direction on pack to pre-bake shell.
