Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the crust

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.

2
Make the cheesecake batter

In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Sift in cocoa powder and flour, and mix until incorporated. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually pour in 1 cup heavy cream and mix until smooth.

3
Bake the cheesecake

Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared crust. Bake for 1 hour, or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour with the door slightly ajar. Remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack.

4
Prepare the chocolate mousse

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip 1 1/2 cups heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped cream until well combined.

5
Assemble the cheesecake

Spread the chocolate mousse evenly over the cooled cheesecake. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until the mousse is set.

6
Serve

Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and slice it into 12 equal pieces. Serve chilled.
