How to Make Hot Chocolate Cheesecake
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
Combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Stir until well-blended.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan.
Beat cream cheese and sugar in another bowl until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Fold in mini marshmallows and chocolate chips gently.
Pour the cheesecake batter over your prepared crust.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
Cool the cheesecake at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
Optional: Top with whipped cream and an extra sprinkle of chocolate chips before serving.
