How to Make Chocolate Malted Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom and about ½ inch up the sides of an ungreased 9-inch springform pan.
- Refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling.
- Make the chocolate mixture: In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler), combine 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat 3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 cup granulated sugar until well combined.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in 1/3 cup malted milk powder and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until just combined.
- Gently fold in the cooled chocolate mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
- Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
- Garnish with chocolate curls, a chocolate drizzle, or almond bark, if desired.
