Description
A rich and decadent Triple Chocolate Cheesecake with a crunchy Oreo crust, perfect for chocolate lovers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups Oreo cookie crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
- 4 ounces milk chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
- 4 ounces white chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the sour cream until smooth.
- Divide the cream cheese mixture into three separate bowls. In the first bowl, mix in the melted semi-sweet chocolate. In the second bowl, mix in the melted milk chocolate. In the third bowl, mix in the melted white chocolate.
- Pour the semi-sweet chocolate layer over the cooled Oreo crust, spreading it evenly. Follow with the milk chocolate layer, and then the white chocolate layer, spreading each layer evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and crack the oven door, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 1 hour.
- Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of espresso powder to the cream cheese mixture before dividing it into bowls.
- Top the cheesecake with whipped cream and chocolate shavings for an extra touch before serving.
