METHOD
- First, pre-heat the oven to 160c/320f.
- Now, in a large bowl mix the cream cheese, flour and sugar together. Then add in the coffee. Now fold through the sour cream. Whilst mixing, add one egg at a time until well combined
- Grease a baking tin or spring form tin with butter. You could also line the base with baking paper to help with removal later.
- Crush/blitz the biscuits into crumbs with the cocoa powder, then melt the butter. Add the melted butter to the crumbs and add to the base of the baking tin. Flatten with a spoon and try and make sure that it is even across the tin.
- Bake the base in the oven for 10 minutes to help with a crisp base.
- Remove and pour the coffee cheesecake mixture to the tin. Place it back into the oven and cook for 10 minutes again, then lower the heat to 100c/210f and continue to cook for a further 25 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove and leave to cool in the tin.
- Whilst cooling, make the topping drizzles. First, add coffee to the icing sugar and mix. Then melt chocolate over a low heat with the cream/milk. Thats it. Thats the two drizzles.
- Once cooled, pour your two drizzles however you like over the cheese cake.
- Serve and ENJOY!
