  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 0.25 cups brewed coffee, cooled
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
  • 0.5 cups caramel sauce

Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer (hand or stand)
  • Medium bowl
  • Rubber spatula
  • Small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl for melting chocolate
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Combine chocolate cookie crumbs with granulated sugar in a medium bowl; add melted butter and stir until coated.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  4. Bake the crust for 10 minutes and let it cool on a rack.
  5. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth; gradually mix in granulated sugar.
  6. Add eggs one at a time, mixing just until each yolk disappears.
  7. Pour in cooled coffee and melted chocolate, mixing until combined.
  8. Gently fold in the caramel sauce until swirled through the filling.
  9. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and tap the pan to release air bubbles.
  10. Bake for 55-60 minutes until edges are set with a slight jiggle in the center.
  11. Turn off the oven and crack the door open; let the cheesecake cool for one hour.
  12. Run a thin knife around the edge of the cheesecake to loosen it; cool completely then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  13. Carefully remove the springform ring; top with whipped cream and drizzle with caramel sauce, then add chocolate shavings.
