Ingredients

Scale

Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp butter, melted

Chocolate Cheesecake Filling:

  • 24 oz (3 blocks) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder

Topping:

  • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 graham cracker, crushed (for garnish)

Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Crust:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl until combined.
  • Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.

2️⃣ Make the Cheesecake Filling:

  • In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
  • Add sour cream, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder, mixing well.
  • Beat in eggs, one at a time, until just combined.
  • Stir in melted chocolate chips and mix until smooth.

3️⃣ Bake the Cheesecake:

  • Pour the batter over the crust and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
  • Turn off the oven, crack the door slightly, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 30 minutes.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) for best results.

4️⃣ Add the S’mores Topping:

  • Preheat your oven broiler to high.
  • Sprinkle mini marshmallows on top of the cheesecake and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips and heavy cream in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  • Drizzle over the toasted marshmallows and garnish with crushed graham crackers.

5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy:

  • Slice and serve your gooey, chocolatey, and creamy S’mores Cheesecake!

Notes

✔️ For a No-Bake Version: Use a no-bake chocolate cheesecake filling and chill instead of baking.
✔️ Make Ahead: This cheesecake tastes even better the next day!
✔️ Storage: Keep refrigerated for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months (without the marshmallow topping).
