Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Filling
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to create an even layer for your crust.
- Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the filling mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout. This will give your cheesecake delightful pockets of chocolate in every bite.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best results.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for a smoother filling.
- Be careful not to over-whip the cream; it should be fluffy but not too stiff.
- Allow the cheesecake to set properly in the fridge for a firmer texture.
- Choose high-quality chocolate chips for a richer chocolate flavor.
- Add toppings just before serving to keep them fresh and appealing.
