Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for crust)
• 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar (for filling)
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
• 2 tablespoons hot water
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
• 0 whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
• 0 chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 1 cup of granulated sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add eggs one at a time to the cream cheese mixture, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the sour cream.

Step 5

Dissolve the instant coffee granules in 2 tablespoons of hot water and stir into the cream cheese mixture.

Step 6

Fold the melted semi-sweet chocolate into the batter until evenly combined.

Step 7

Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan and spread evenly.

Step 8

Place the springform pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for 60-65 minutes or until the center is just set.

Step 9

Turn off the oven and crack the door open slightly. Allow the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 1 hour to prevent cracking.

Step 10

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and cool completely at room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 11

Run a knife around the edges of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan before removing the springform pan ring.

Step 12

Optionally, garnish the cheesecake with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving.

Step 13

Slice into wedges and enjoy!
