How to Make Special Chocolate Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs. Combine crumbs with melted butter and sugar. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until combined.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and hot coffee until smooth.
- Gradually add the chocolate mixture to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared crust.
- Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates a water bath).
- Bake for 75 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake 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.
- Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
