Ingredients
Scale
- 22 Oreo cookies, crushed
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ½ cups cold heavy whipping cream
- 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
Instructions
- Grease a 9-inch springform pan with butter or shortening.
- Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor. Gradually add melted butter while processing on low speed until crumbs clump.
- Press mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Freeze for at least 20 minutes until firm.
- Pour cold heavy whipping cream into a mixing bowl and whip with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese, cocoa powder, and instant espresso powder until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
- Gently fold in whipped cream until evenly incorporated.
- Spoon filling over the chilled crust and smooth the surface. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
- Combine heavy cream and espresso powder in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 1 minute or until steaming.
- Add chocolate chips, letting sit 2 minutes. Stir until smooth, then mix in corn syrup.
- Run a thin knife around the pan edges to loosen cheesecake. Remove the ring and transfer cheesecake to a serving plate.
- Pour ganache evenly over the top and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve chilled.
Notes
- For best results, refrigerate the cheesecake overnight.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
- This cheesecake is rich, so small slices are recommended.
