Ingredients
Scale
- 2.5 cups (335g) Oreo Cookie Crumbs
- 0.25 cup (56g) Unsalted Butter, melted
- 24 oz (678g) Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 cup (207g) Granulated White Sugar
- 3 tablespoons (24g) All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup (230g) Sour Cream, softened
- 3 tablespoons Instant Coffee or Espresso Granules, dissolved in 1.5 tablespoons (30ml) hot water
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 4 Large Eggs, at room temperature
- 4 oz (113g) Semi-Sweet Chocolate, finely chopped
- 6 tablespoons Heavy Whipping Cream, scalded
- 1 cup (240ml) Heavy Whipping Cream, ice-cold
- 0.5 cup (58g) Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Instant Coffee or Espresso Granules
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and grease the sides. Mix Oreo crumbs and melted butter in a bowl, then press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes and cool completely.
- Reduce your oven temperature to 300°F (148°C). In a bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and flour on low until smooth. Add sour cream, mixing on low briefly, then mix in the coffee liquid and vanilla. Add eggs one at a time, mixing slowly. Pour into the crust.
- Place your foil-wrapped springform pan inside a larger baking pan. Pour warm water into the outer pan until it reaches halfway up the sides. Bake at 300°F for 1 hour 15 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the cake sit inside for 30 minutes, then cool for another 30 minutes.
- Remove the cheesecake from the water bath, strip off the foil, and refrigerate for at least 5 to 6 hours, preferably overnight.
- Heat 6 tablespoons of heavy cream until simmering, pour over semi-sweet chocolate, let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until glossy. Spread ganache over the cake. Whip the cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and coffee until stiff peaks form, pipe around the edge, and serve!
Notes
For the best flavor, chill the cheesecake overnight. Use a clean hot knife for slicing to achieve perfect cuts.
