Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325ºF/160ºC.
  2. Put the chocolate wafer biscuits into a food processor, crush them slightly so it is easier for them to be cruched by the machine. Add the melted butter and grind for 30 seconds, or until slightly crushed with lumps.
  3. Place your crumbs into a 9 x 3 inch (can be any size) springform pan and press the crumbs evenly to create a base layer of around 1.5 inches for the crust. Place in the oven for about 10 minutes.
  4. Blend together the cream cheese, salt and sugar. Once the mixture starts coming together, add the eggs slowly through the feed tube. Then add the sour cream. If using more that one type of chocolate, split the mixture.
  5. Add 8 ounces of the melted chocolate to the mixture and mix until it is completely smooth. Pour the mixture on top of the crust and cover the pan with foil.
  6. Cook the cheesecake for one hour in the oven by using a water bath for the springform pan. After one hour, turn the oven off, leaving the cheesecake inside for another hour.
  7. Run a knife around the edge to loosen the cheesecake from the sides, let it cool and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour and up to overnight.
  8. To make the ganache, bring the heavy cream to a boil and pour it over the remaining melted chocolate. Decorate the cheesecake with the ganache.
