How to Make Auntie Oma's Double Chocolate Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and sour cream until smooth.
  5. Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared springform pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  7. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to cool slowly.
  8. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
