Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted unsalted butter until well mixed. Transfer it to a 9-inch springform pan, pressing it down firmly.
- In a large bowl, beat the room-temperature cream cheese with granulated sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooled strong brewed coffee and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and beat gently until combined.
- Crack the eggs into the mixture, adding them one at a time and mixing on low speed until blended.
- Gently fold in the caramel sauce using a spatula until well incorporated.
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for about 55-60 minutes until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
- Turn off the oven and crack the door open, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, to let the flavors meld.
- Before serving, drizzle the top with additional caramel sauce and sprinkle with coffee beans.

Notes
Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps. For a creamier result, consider using a water bath while baking.
