Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. In a small bowl, stir together the crushed chocolate wafers and cinnamon.
  3. Press the wafer mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to create an even crust.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the light cream cheese until it is light and fluffy.
  5. Add the sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder to the cream cheese and beat until well combined.
  6. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  7. Stir in 2 cups of the sour cream, the coffee liqueur, and the vanilla extract until smooth.
  8. Pour the batter over the crust and spread the remaining 1/2 cup of sour cream evenly over the top.
  9. Bake for about 1 hour, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  10. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
  11. Remove from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely chilled.
  12. Just before serving, run a knife around the edge to loosen, remove the springform ring, and dust the top with cocoa powder.
