Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • 9-inch springform pan
  • Saucepan

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs like chocolate Oreo or graham crackers
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 3 8 oz packages cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips melted
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream for ganache
  • 4 oz semisweet chocolate chopped for ganache

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs, sugar, and melted butter; press into a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes and let it cool.
  • Beat together cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl until smooth.
  • Add heavy cream, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each.
  • Fold in melted chocolate and heavy cream until smooth.
  • Pour cheesecake filling over the cooled crust; smooth it out.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes until the edges are set but the center is slightly jiggly.
  • Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool slowly inside.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Heat heavy cream in a saucepan until simmering; pour it over chopped chocolate and let sit before stirring until smooth to make ganache.
  • Pour ganache over the chilled cheesecake and let it spread evenly.
  • Refrigerate for an additional hour to set the ganache.
  • Slice and serve; garnish as desired.

Notes

For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free cookies for the crust. You can substitute dark chocolate for semisweet for a richer flavor. For a dairy-free option, try using coconut cream instead of heavy cream. Make sure to use room-temperature ingredients for a smoother batter. Chill your cheesecake before slicing for better results. Enjoy garnishing with chocolate shavings or fresh berries!
