Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup strawberry puree
1/4 cup melted dark chocolate
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
Mix the chocolate cookie crumbs with the melted butter and press into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in sour cream and flour until smooth.
Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the crust. Drizzle strawberry puree and melted chocolate over the batter. Pour the remaining batter over the top.
Use a knife to gently swirl the strawberry puree and chocolate into the batter.
Place the cheesecake in a water bath and bake for about 1 hour, or until the center is set and the top is lightly browned.
Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour with the door slightly ajar.
Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
