This rich and creamy Coffee Cheesecake combines the smooth tanginess of cream cheese with the robust flavor of coffee, baked to perfection on a crunchy graham cracker crust. Perfect for coffee lovers seeking a decadent yet elegant dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 24 oz (680g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) brewed strong coffee, cooled

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups (150g) graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp (85g) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until the mixture is evenly moistened. Press this firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  2. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Gradually blend in the cooled brewed coffee until well combined and smooth.
  3. Assemble and bake: Pour the coffee cream cheese filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (163°C) for about 50-60 minutes until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  4. Chill the cheesecake: Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to fully set and develop flavor.

Notes

  • Use strong brewed coffee for a more pronounced coffee flavor.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
  • Do not overbake; the center should have a slight wobble to achieve a creamy texture.
  • Chilling overnight improves flavor and makes slicing easier.
  • You can garnish with whipped cream or coffee beans before serving.
