Triple Chocolate Cheesecake is an indulgent dessert featuring a chocolate cookie crust, a rich chocolate cheesecake filling, and a glossy chocolate ganache topping. It’s the ultimate treat for chocolate lovers.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (e.g., Oreos, finely crushed)
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 8 oz semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (for ganache)
  • 4 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped (for ganache)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Mix chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press into the bottom of the pan to form a crust. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside to cool.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add sour cream and vanilla, mixing well. Add eggs one at a time, beating on low speed just until combined.
  5. Fold in melted semisweet chocolate and mini chocolate chips, if using.
  6. Pour filling over the cooled crust. Smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 55–65 minutes or until center is just set and slightly jiggly. Turn off oven, crack the door, and let cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  9. For ganache, heat heavy cream until just simmering. Pour over chopped bittersweet chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth.
  10. Spread ganache over the chilled cheesecake and refrigerate for another hour before serving.

Notes

  • Use a water bath during baking to prevent cracks.
  • Let cheesecake come to room temperature for 10–15 minutes before slicing for cleaner cuts.
  • You can top with chocolate shavings or curls for extra decoration.
