The recipe uses instant cappuccino powder in the batter to create that well loved, cozy flavor. The filling rests on top of a buttery chocolate cookie crust and the entire cheesecake is topped with whipped cream and a luscious chocolate drizzle.
Ingredients
For the crust
- 2 and 1/2 cups fudge-filled sandwich cookie crumbs about 30 cookies
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
For the cheesecake
- 4 (8 ounces each) packages cream cheese softened
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 and 1/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoons instant vanilla cappuccino powder
- 3 large eggs lightly beaten
For the topping
- 2 cups stabilized whipped cream
For the ganache
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
- 2 ounces semisweet chocolate coarsely chopped
Instructions
Make the crust
- Adjust the oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 350ºF. Wrap the outer bottom of a 9-inch springform pan tightly with aluminum foil. Combine the cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and about 2-inches up the sides of the pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool while you make the filling.
Make the cheesecake
- Reduce the oven temperature to 300ºF.
- In a large mixing bowl beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in the heavy cream and sugar until well combined. Add the vanilla and cappuccino powder; beat on low speed until smooth. Using a silicone spatula, gently stir in the eggs just until combined. Pour the batter over the crust in the prepared pan. Place the pan inside a roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the cheesecake pan.
- Bake for 1 hour. Turn the oven off, leave the cheesecake in the water bath in the oven for another hour. Remove the cheesecake from the water bath. Run a small knife around the outer edge of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan and leave it to cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- Just before serving, Remove the sides of the pan. Top the cheesecake with the whipped cream and ganache.
Make the ganache
- Place the cream, corn syrup, and chococlate in a medium heatproof bowl set over a pot of barely simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Drizzle the ganache over the top of the whipped cream.
