Description

Indulge in this rich and decadent Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecake with layers of creamy chocolate and fruity strawberry. Topped with fresh strawberries, it creates the perfect balance of flavors for an impressive and irresistible dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs 🍪
  • 1/4 cup melted butter 🧈
  • 24 oz cream cheese, softened 🧀
  • 1 cup granulated sugar 🍬
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 🍨
  • 4 large eggs 🥚
  • 1 cup sour cream 🥛
  • 1/2 cup strawberry puree 🍓
  • 1/2 cup melted semi-sweet chocolate 🍫
  • Fresh strawberries 🍓 (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs 🍪 and melted butter 🧈. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Batter: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese 🧀, granulated sugar 🍬, and vanilla extract 🍨 together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs 🥚 one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the sour cream 🥛 until fully combined.
  4. Divide the Batter: Divide the cheesecake batter into two equal portions. Stir the strawberry puree 🍓 into one half and the melted semi-sweet chocolate 🍫 into the other.
  5. Layer the Cheesecake: Pour the chocolate batter over the crust first, spreading it evenly. Gently layer the strawberry batter on top by pouring it slowly to avoid mixing the layers.
  6. Bake the Cheesecake: Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature.
  7. Chill: Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best texture and flavor.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the cheesecake with fresh strawberries 🍓. For an extra touch, drizzle some melted chocolate 🍫 over the top.

Notes

For an even richer flavor, you can drizzle additional melted chocolate 🍫 over the top before serving.
