Ingredients
Scale
For the Filling
- 16 oz (450 g) cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (175 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
For the Crust
- 1 prepared graham cracker crust (9-inch)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar and continue mixing until fully combined. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the mixture.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly to the edges to create a smooth surface.
- Chill the Cheesecake: Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or until firm enough to slice and serve.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
- You can use mini chocolate chips for more even distribution.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the filling mixture.
- This cheesecake should be kept refrigerated and is best consumed within 3-4 days.
- To make the crust from scratch, combine 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers with 6 tablespoons melted butter and press into a 9-inch pan.
