Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (163Β°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine chocolate graham cracker crumbs (1.5 cups), melted butter (6 tablespoons), and granulated sugar (2 tablespoons). Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form a crust. Bake for 8β10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese (16 ounces) and granulated sugar (3/4 cup) until smooth and creamy.
Mix in the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips (6 ounces), followed by the sour cream (1/2 cup) and vanilla extract (1 teaspoon).
Add the eggs (2 large), one at a time, beating just until combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the cheesecake filling into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Bake for 40β45 minutes, or until the center is just set and slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven and leave the pie inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to cool gradually. Afterward, transfer the pie to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
While the cheesecake is chilling, prepare the raspberry topping. In a small saucepan, combine raspberries (1.5 cups), granulated sugar (1/4 cup), cornstarch (1 tablespoon), and water (2 tablespoons).
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and reaches a jam-like consistency (about 5β8 minutes). Remove from heat and allow it to cool completely.
Before serving, spread the cooled raspberry topping evenly over the chilled cheesecake pie.
Slice and serve your Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Pie. Enjoy!
