Ingredients
Scale
1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs
½ cup of granulated sugar
½ cup of unsalted butter (melted)
2 (8 oz) packages of Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
1 cup of sour cream
¼ cup of espresso or strong brewed coffee (cooled)
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
Instructions
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted unsalted butter. Mix well until crumbly. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan using the back of a measuring cup for an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes to set the crust.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sour cream and mix until well blended. Next, add the cooled espresso or strong brewed coffee, vanilla extract, and the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Carefully fold in the cocoa powder while ensuring not to over-mix.
Once your filling is ready, pour it over the pre-baked crust in the springform pan. Use a spatula to even the top.
Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes. The edges should be set while the center remains slightly jiggly.
Once the cheesecake is done, turn off the oven and let it cool slowly for about an hour. Refrigerate it for at least 2 hours—or overnight for optimal flavor.
