Decadent Black Bottom Cherry Cheesecake Recipe
Savor the celestial fusion of flavors with our Black Bottom Cherry Cheesecake – a symphony of rich chocolate, velvety cheesecake, and succulent cherries that will transport your taste buds to new heights. Perfect for indulgent moments and special occasions.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 2 cups softened cream cheese
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup melted semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups cherry pie filling
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and generously grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- Combine chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan, creating a decadent crust.
- In a spacious mixing bowl, blend cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until luxuriously smooth. Gradually add eggs, beating thoroughly after each addition.
- Incorporate sour cream into the mixture until fully blended. Pour half of the batter onto the crust.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate chips into the remaining batter. Carefully spread this chocolate layer over the initial cheesecake layer.
- Spoon the cherry pie filling evenly over the chocolate layer.
- Using a knife, delicately swirl the cherry filling into the chocolate layer, creating an exquisite marbled effect.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes or until the center is perfectly set.
- Allow the cheesecake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges to loosen it. Cool completely before refrigerating for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.
- Once chilled, remove from the springform pan, slice, and relish in the divine combination of flavors!
