How to Make Chocolate Cheesecake Chunks
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans recommended), and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to create a crust.
- In a large bowl, beat together 16 ounces cream cheese (softened), ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust.
- Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup chopped nuts over the top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is just slightly jiggly.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow it to set completely.
- Once chilled, use a sharp knife to cut into 1-inch squares.
- Store covered in the refrigerator. Serve chilled.
