For the Filling
- Egg (1)
- Powdered sugar (25 g)

Preparation
Melt the butter with the chocolate and mix it with finely crushed or ground cookies. Press the mixture into the bottoms of your molds (metal, silicone, or muffin tin with liners). Refrigerate until set.
Whisk the egg yolk with powdered sugar until fluffy. Separately, whip the cream and then fold in the cream cheese. Mix the whipped cream mixture with the egg yolk mixture.

Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cheese mixture. Spoon the mixture into the chocolate cups and decorate with melted dark chocolate.
