Chocolate Chip Tiramisu Cheesecake
12 Servings Prep Time 30 Mins Cook Time 1 HR
Ingredients:
One 7-ounce package crisp Italian-style ladyfingers, coarsely chopped
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 1/2 pounds cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 cup marscapone cheese, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups mini semisweet chocolate chips
Boiling water
Directions:
1 .Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350°.
Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with foil and line the
bottom with parchment paper.
2. Using a food processor, grind the ladyfingers into fine crumbs. Add
the butter and espresso and pulse until incorporated. Transfer the
mixture to the prepared pan and press to form a crust halfway up the
side of the pan. Bake until set, 8 to 10 minutes; let cool. Lower the
oven temperature to 325°.
3.Meanwhile, using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese on high
speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar at high
speed until smooth. Beat in the mascarpone, vanilla and salt. Add the
eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in 1/2 cup
chocolate chips.
4. Set the springform pan in a roasting pan. Pour the
mascarpone-chocolate chip mixture into the baked crust, then place the
roasting pan in the oven. Pour enough boiling water into the roasting
pan to reach halfway up the sides of the springform pan. Bake until the
top is golden and the center is set but still jiggly, about 1 hour. Let
cool in the water bath for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool
completely. Refrigerate for 6 hours or up to 2 days. Remove the
cheesecake from the springform pan. In a small, heatproof bowl, melt the
remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips in the microwave at low power,
stirring until smooth. Transfer the chocolate to a resealable plastic
bag. Snip a hole in the corner of the bag and drizzle the chocolate over
the cake.
