Ingredients

• 16 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 4 eggs
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 tablespoons strongly brewed espresso or coffee
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup baking mix (e.g., Bisquick)
• 0 whipped cream (optional, for serving)
• 0 chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan or a deep-dish pie pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Step 4

Gradually mix in the whole milk, brewed espresso or coffee, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals until smooth, stirring in between to prevent burning.

Step 6

Slowly pour the melted chocolate into the cream cheese mixture while mixing to ensure an even consistency.

Step 7

Add the baking mix to the bowl and mix on low speed until just combined. Some small lumps are okay, but avoid overmixing.

Step 8

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan. It will be quite thin—don't worry, it will bake into its layers.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted near the middle comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature in the pan. Once cool, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the layers to set beautifully.

Step 11

Before serving, garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a dusting of cocoa powder, if desired.

Step 12

Slice and enjoy this luscious mocha fudge cheesecake!
