Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 24 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 4 Eggs
• 1 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan lightly with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Step 3

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Add the 1 cup of sugar and continue to beat until fully combined. Mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 6

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated. Do not overmix.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Pour two-thirds of the cream cheese mixture into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 9

Add the melted chocolate mixture to the remaining one-third of the cream cheese batter. Stir until fully combined.

Step 10

Drop spoonfuls of the chocolate batter on top of the plain batter in the pan. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the chocolate into the plain batter to create a marbled effect.

Step 11

Place the springform pan on a baking sheet to catch any leaks. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the center of the cheesecake is set but still slightly jiggly.

Step 12

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

Step 13

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen it. Once it reaches room temperature, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 14

When ready to serve, release the cheesecake from the springform pan. Slice and enjoy!
