Step-by-Step Instructions for Coffee Cheesecake Recipe
  1. Preheat your oven to 325ºF (162ºC) and prepare a 9" springform pan with nonstick spray.

  3. Beat 16 ounces cream cheese for 2-3 minutes until smooth. Gradually add 1 cup sugar, 1 cup sour cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla, mixing until blended.
  4. Add 3 large eggs one at a time, blending on low speed. Fold in 2 tablespoons espresso powder gently.
  5. Pour cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, set in a water bath, and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
  6. Turn off the oven and let cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour, then cool completely on a wire rack for 2 hours.
  7. Cover and chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  8. Heat 1 cup heavy cream until simmering and pour over 1 cup chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon espresso powder. Stir until smooth.
  9. Remove cheesecake from the pan, pour ganache on top, and let it set for 15 minutes.
