The border didn't come our well in this cheesecake, so I removed it and create a dark chocolate border instead. Plus I had some spare strawberries, so I did a coulis to put on top of the cake.
It ended up being my best cheesecake ever! :D

The Cake recipe it's for a 10 inches springform pan & it is taken from here: http://ricette.giallozafferano.it/New-York-Cheesecake.html
2

For the base: Crush the Digestive biscuits together with the cane sugar. Put the mix into a bowl and add the melted butter. Mix together until you get a dense mixture and cover the bottom of you pan.

Place the pan in the refrigerator to set for an hour, or in the freezer for 30 minutes.

In a bowl mix together the cream cheese, the cornstarch, the eggs, the heavy cream and the sugar.
5

Add salt and lemon juice to the custard and pour it into the pan.
6

Bake the cake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Then lower the temperature to 320°F and continue to bake for another 30 minutes. (Put an aluminum foil over the cake if it becomes too brown while cooking)
7

Bain-marie melt the chocolate and with a palette knife cover the border of the cake with it.

For the coulis, put all the ingredients in a pan and cook over medium fire for 15-20 minutes stirring frequently with a whisk. Once the strawberries are "melted" the coulis is ready.

Pour the coulis over the cake and level it with a palette knife. You can decorate the cake with strawberry slices if you want.

Let the cake set overnight in the fridge before serving.
