Designing a creamy, sweet, mocha cheese

[DoctorCheese]

I am considering creating a cheese that is sweet and creamy enough to counterbalance the bold flavors of chocolate and/or espresso. Sort of how cheesecake goes really well with raspberries or some other fruit to cut through the fattiness. I know that washing curds lowers the acidity of the cheese, but at what is too much washing. I know that you can add cream to the milk to make the cheese richer, but how much can you add? I want the cheese to be such rich, sweet, and creamy that without the intensity of the rind it would be too decadent. Any ideas, suggestions, comments, or smart remarks are welcome

What about a Brie with pure cream.

I was thinking a semi-hard cheese, but I do appreciate your reply

How about Alpine style, washed curd with raw jersey or high fat milk (or with cream added)?
Or even a manchego style with chocolate rub.

This is pretty much what I was thinking. I would definitely add cream but the washing part I am not sure exactly how to proceed-- how long, what percent of water to add in, what temp. Also, which culture/s to add I am unsure on.

 and keep the curd well above 5.4 ph

I think I will remove 25% whey and scald with 140F water until it reach 100F, basically following a raclette wash schedulle. I like using AlpD for my alpine cheese but of course you can go TA plus LH or even buttermilk plus bulgarian yoghurt (but for me, I prefer Alpine cheese with helveticus in it).

Having said that, I also like Gregore's Tomme idea. Throw in some mycodore in it and most probably you will get a colourful rind.
