Ingredients

For the Crust:

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Filling:

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips (or regular chocolate chips, chopped)

For the Topping (optional):

Extra mini chocolate chips

Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture is well combined and resembles wet sand.
  2. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish or springform pan to form an even crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, making sure to combine them without deflating the whipped cream.
  6. Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
  7. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the filling.
  8. Pour the cheesecake filling into the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  9. Chill the Cheesecake: Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set and firm up.
  10. Before serving, top with extra chocolate chips and whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Add a drizzle of melted chocolate or caramel sauce on top for extra indulgence.

Use a mix of dark and milk chocolate chips for a more complex flavor.

Add a pinch of salt to the filling for a sweet-and-salty twist.

Top with fresh berries like raspberries or strawberries for a fruity contrast.
