Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 pieces large eggs
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of sugar, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press evenly into the bottom of the springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add 1 cup of sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until well-mixed and smooth.

Step 5

Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.

Step 7

Pour half of the cheesecake batter into the prepared crust, smoothing it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Drizzle half of the melted chocolate mixture over the batter. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the chocolate into the batter to create a marbled effect.

Step 9

Pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top, smoothing it into an even layer. Drizzle the remaining chocolate mixture over this layer and create additional swirls.

Step 10

Wrap the bottom of the springform pan in aluminum foil to prevent water from leaking in. Place the pan in a large roasting dish and pour hot water into the dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates a water bath).

Step 11

Bake the cheesecake for 60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.

Step 12

Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour to cool gradually.

Step 13

Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and run a knife around the edges to loosen it. Let it cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 14

Before serving, release the springform pan and slice. Enjoy your Fabulous Marbled Cheesecake!
