How to Make Chocolate Amaretto Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract and amaretto.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together melted chocolate and melted butter until combined. Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture.
- Pour batter into the prepared springform pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is just set. The edges will be firm, but the center might still jiggle slightly.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely.
- Before serving, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and garnish as desired (chocolate shavings, amaretto cherries, fresh berries).
