A rich and creamy mocha cheesecake with a crunchy Oreo crust, topped with chocolate ganache and whipped cream. Perfect for a decadent dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp instant espresso powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/2 cup chocolate ganache (or thick hot fudge)
  • Whipped cream
  • Crushed chocolate cookies or chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Combine crushed cookies with melted butter and press into a greased springform pan.
  2. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix in espresso powder, vanilla, and melted chocolate. Add eggs one at a time, then fold in sour cream.
  3. Pour filling into crust. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the center is just set.
  4. Let cheesecake cool in the oven (door slightly open) for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Drizzle with ganache, pipe whipped cream, and sprinkle with cookie crumbs before serving.

Notes

  • Use room-temperature cream cheese for a smoother filling.
  • Chilling the cheesecake overnight ensures the best texture.
  • Adjust espresso powder for stronger or milder coffee flavor.
