Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (like Oreos, crushed with filling)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 3 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup brewed strong coffee, cooled
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce (plus extra for topping)
- Whipped cream and chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and wrap the bottom with foil to prepare for a water bath.
- In a bowl, mix chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until combined. Press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and beat until well combined.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Then mix in sour cream, vanilla, and coffee until smooth.
- Divide batter in half. Stir melted chocolate into one half and mix well.
- Pour the coffee cheesecake batter over the crust. Drop spoonfuls of the chocolate batter on top and gently swirl with a knife. Drizzle in half the caramel sauce and swirl again.
- Place pan in a large roasting dish and fill halfway with hot water. Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly.
- Turn off oven, crack door, and let cheesecake sit for 1 hour. Then remove and cool completely before refrigerating at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, drizzle with remaining caramel sauce and garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings if desired.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients for a smooth filling.
- To prevent cracking, avoid overmixing and use a water bath.
- Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days, covered.
