The best Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Recipe is here, and it's perfect for all chocolate lovers out there! This twist on a classic cheesecake is packed with creamy goodness and loaded with chocolate chip
Crust:
For the Oreo® crust, use a food processor to mix the Oreo® cookies, melted butter, and salt. Pulse until you get fine crumbs. Press them firmly into the bottom of your springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside.
Cheesecake Filling:
beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium speed for 1.5 minutes using a stand mixer or a hand mixer. Add sour cream, and mix until just combined. Then start adding the eggs
In a small bowl, mix 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips with the flour, and fold them into the batter gently. Pour your cheesecake mixture into your prepared cookie crust and smooth it out. Tap your pan on the counter 4-5 times to release all air bubbles.
Sprinkle the rest of the chocolate chips on top of the cheesecake. Place your springform pan inside a larger cake pan, then place both inside a larger roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with hot water halfway up the springform pan. Ensure there are no holes or crevices where the water could get to your cheesecake.
Place your cheesecake on the middle oven rack and bake for 70-80 minutes. The cheesecake is done when the edges are well set and the middle is set but still jiggly. Let cool completely, cover with aluminum foil, and refrigerate overnight or for 8 hours.
Topping
In a small metal bowl with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream and sugar until stiff peaks form. Place the whipped cream in a piping bag with a 1M baking tip and make swirls all around your cheesecake. Sprinkle with extra chocolate chips.
