Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 g Graham cracker crumbs
- 85 g Unsalted butter
- 680 g Cream cheese, softened
- 225 g Mascarpone cheese
- 200 g Granulated sugar
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 3 Large eggs
- 120 ml Strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 30 ml Coffee liqueur (optional)
- 12 Ladyfinger cookies
- 240 ml Heavy cream
- 50 g Powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp Cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F). Grease and line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined. Set this filling aside.
In a shallow bowl, mix the coffee and coffee liqueur (if using). Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the mixture, ensuring they are saturated but not falling apart.
Arrange the soaked ladyfingers on top of the graham cracker crust to form a single layer.
Gently pour the cheesecake filling over the ladyfinger layer, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Place the pan on the center rack of the oven and bake for 65-75 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center slightly jiggles.
Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour to prevent cracks.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven. Run a knife around the edges and let it cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread it evenly over the top of the chilled cheesecake.
Dust the cheesecake with cocoa powder before serving. Optionally, garnish with chocolate shavings or espresso beans for a decorative touch.
