No-Bake Cheesecake Filling/Tart

1.  Heat up half of the heavy cream (4 Tablespoons/60 ml) either on stovetop or in the microwave at 30 second intervals just until hot but not boiling.
2. Place white chocolate chips into a small mixing bowl and pour over heated heavy cream. Let mixture sit un-touch for at least 30 seconds.
3. Stir white chocolate and heavy cream mixture together until all of the chocolate is melted. If some of the chocolate chips do not melt, simply warm mixture in the microwave for 20 seconds and stir until all of the chocolate is melted. Set chocolate mixture aside to cool.

6. Once all of the white chocolate has been added, stop mixer and with at flexible spatula, scrape the sides and bottom of mixing bowl to catch any unmixed ingredients.
7. Mix remaining heavy cream (4 Tablespoons/60 ml) into cheesecake mixture at medium high speed until mixture becomes thick and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
