Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup espresso, cooled
- 1/4 cup coffee liqueur (like Kahlúa)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chocolate shavings or coffee beans for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy. Slowly add the cooled espresso, coffee liqueur, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Serve: Once set, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Garnish with chocolate shavings or coffee beans before slicing and serving.
