Chocolate And Mocha Cheesecake Recipe

 


Chocolate And Mocha Cheesecake Recipe


Ingredients:


- 1 cup of crushed chocolate cookies (like Oreos)

- 1/4 cup of melted butter

- 2 cups of cream cheese (softened)

- 1 cup of sugar

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

- 2 eggs

- 1/2 cup of sour cream

- 1/4 cup of cocoa powder

- 1/4 cup of brewed coffee (cooled)

- Chocolate shavings (for decoration, optional)


Instructions:


1. Make the Crust: 

   - First, we need to make the crust! Take the crushed chocolate cookies and mix them with the melted butter in a bowl. It should look like wet sand. 

   - Now, press this mixture into the bottom of a round cake pan. This will be our yummy base!


2. Mix the Cheesecake Filling:

   - In another big bowl, put the softened cream cheese. Use a mixer to beat it until it’s smooth and creamy. 

   - Add the sugar and vanilla extract, and mix again until everything is well combined.

   - Now, crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing after each one. 

   - Next, add the sour cream, cocoa powder, and cooled coffee. Mix until it’s all smooth and chocolatey!


3. Pour and Bake:

   - Carefully pour the cheesecake filling over the crust in the cake pan. 

   - Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and bake the cheesecake for about 50-60 minutes. It should be set but still a little jiggly in the middle.


4. Cool Down:

   - Once it’s done baking, let it cool down at room temperature for a bit, then put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. This helps it get nice and firm!


5. Serve:

   - When you’re ready to eat, you can sprinkle some chocolate shavings on top for decoration if you want. Then slice it up and enjoy your delicious chocolate and mocha cheesecake!
