Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

Filling

  • 3 8 oz packages cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 8 oz container sour cream
  • ⅓ cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Topping

  • Fresh whipped cream
  • Salted caramel drizzle ((or store-bought caramel))

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
  2. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and about 1 inch up the sides of the pan.
  3. Prepare the crust: Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C).
  4. Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese using an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Gradually add the white and brown sugars, beating until fully incorporated. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Make the cheesecake filling: Stir in the sour cream, brewed espresso, and vanilla extract until combined. Pour the batter over the cooled crust.
  6. Bake: Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 5 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Once done, turn off the oven, crack the door open slightly, and let the cheesecake rest for 15 minutes inside.
  7. Cool and chill: Cool it completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight, to set.
  8. Serve: Before serving, slice the cheesecake into wedges. Top with whipped cream, salted caramel drizzled overtop & biscoff crumbs for that perfect caramel macchiato finish. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Letting the cheesecake rest in the oven with the door cracked for 15 minutes helps prevent cracking.
  • Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight to allow the cheesecake to fully set.
