Coffee Fudge Cheesecake

A rich and creamy cheesecake featuring coffee and chocolate flavors, with a graham cracker crust and swirls of warm fudge sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup brewed coffee (cooled)
  • 1 cup fudge sauce
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and brewed coffee.
  3. Pour half of this cheesecake batter over the crust. Drizzle half of the fudge sauce over the batter. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top and swirl in the rest of the fudge sauce for a marbled effect.
  4. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
  5. Let the cheesecake cool, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Before serving, whip the heavy cream and dollop on top, if desired.

Notes

For neat slices, use a hot, clean knife. Serve chilled with additional fudge or whipped cream.
