Decadent chocolate chip cheesecake with a creamy filling and a crunchy crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in sour cream and vanilla extract.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating on low speed until just combined after each addition. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in mini chocolate chips.
  6. Pour filling over the crust in the springform pan.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly.
  8. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use full-fat cream cheese.
  • Do not overmix the batter once eggs are added, as this can cause cracks in the cheesecake.
  • Ensure the cheesecake is fully chilled before slicing for clean cuts.
