Preparation of Berry Cheesecake
Finely chop the biscuits in a food processor and pour them into a bowl. Add the melted butter and mix until well combined.
Place a sheet of parchment paper at the bottom of the springform pan and close the latch, trimming the excess paper.
Place the buttered biscuits in the pan and compact it, leveling the base. Use a meat tenderizer to achieve a perfect cheesecake base. Place the pan in the freezer to firm up the base.
Soak the gelatin sheets in a bowl.
In a bowl, combine mascarpone, cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and the zest and juice of 1 lime. Mix well until you have a smooth and homogeneous cream.
Squeeze the gelatin sheets well, place them in a pot, and melt over medium heat while stirring. Once melted, pour it into the cream in a steady stream, continuously stirring until it is well incorporated into the cream.
Take the pan with the biscuit base from the freezer, pour in the cream, level it with a spatula, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 5 hours.
After resting in the fridge, place the cheesecake on a serving plate and decorate with alternating rows of blueberries and raspberries. In the empty spaces, place lime slices. Finish the decoration with fresh mint leaves, slice, and serve!
