Cut parchment paper to fit the bottom of your springform pan. Place it securely, nice and tight, on top of the bottom plate and snap the ring close around it. Put your graham crackers in a mixing bowl. Add sugar, salt and cocoa powder. With a spoon, mix well to combine. Pour in your melted butter and continue mixing until it looks like wet sand. Scoop and press the crumbs firmly into the bottom of the springform pan using a spoon. Wrap the outside of the springform pan in foil, taking care to avoid tears or openings where water might seep in. I recommend wrapping the pan twice with foil, pressing firmly to secure it around the pan really tightly. Bake for 12–15 minutes. Let it cool completely while you prepare the filling. Step 2: Melt the Chocolate Set up a double boiler by bringing a small pot of water to a gentle simmer. Place a heatproof bowl on top and add your chopped chocolate. Stir occasionally until it’s completely melted and smooth. Add coffee and stir until well-combined. Remove from heat and let it sit while you make the batter. Step 3: The Dreamy Chocolate Filling Pre-heat oven to 325°F (160°C) Soften your cream cheese by pressing and cutting it with a wooden spoon. Add in that gorgeous melted chocolate. Add both sugars, cocoa powder, egg, egg yolk, heavy cream and vanilla. With an electric mixer, blend everything until fully incorporated and smooth. Mix just until combined — you don’t want to overmix here. Pour the filling over your cooled crust. Tap the pan on the counter a few times and shake gently to release bubbles and make the batter even. Step 4: The Water Bath Bake Place the springform pan inside a large roasting pan. Pour hot water into the roasting pan until it reaches about 1 inch up the sides of the cheesecake pan. This water bath is the secret to that ultra-creamy texture and helps prevent cracking. Bake for about 65 minutes. The center should be set but still have a slight jiggle. It will firm up as it cools. Carefully remove it from the water bath and let it cool completely at room temperature. Remove the foil, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is even better). Step 5: The Glossy Chocolate Ganache Place chopped chocolate in a bowl. Heat heavy cream just until it begins to simmer, then pour over the chocolate. Whisk until smooth and shiny. Stir in the butter for that extra glossy finish. Let the ganache thicken slightly at room temperature, then pour it over the chilled cheesecake and spread gently. Let it set for at least an hour in the fridge. ~~~~~~~~~~ Slicing & Serving Gently run a knife around the edge of the cheesecake inside the pan. Open your springform pan’s closure and carefully remove the ring around the cheesecake. Lift the parchment paper slightly to release it from the bottom plate of the pan. Transfer to a serving plate. Want to take it up a notch? Add a generous sprinkle of shavings of your favorite chocolate bar over the top. For those clean, bakery-style slices, use a thin sharp knife and wipe it clean between each cut. Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days — though honestly, it doesn’t last that long at home. ~~~~~~~~~~ #ChocolateCheesecake #ChocolateDessert #CheesecakeLovers #BakingFromScratch #HomemadeDessert #Ganache #ChocolateGanache #DessertRecipe #EasyBaking #DecadentDesserts #DessertLovers
