guinness chocolate cheesecake

IKLAN

You should make this for St. Patrick’s Day. (Although if you decide to go with one of these instead, I won’t blame you.)  Or just on a random day that ends in y. I won’t judge.

Ingredients

IKLAN

• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp butter, melted
• 12 oz dark chocolate, chopped
• 2 tbsp heavy cream
• 3 (8 oz) packages of lowfat cream cheese
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup greek yogurt
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup Guinness

Instructions

1. Mix the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, sugar and melted butter together in a medium bowl.  Pour into the base on a 9-inch springform pan and press down into the bottom of it. Store in the freezer while you make the filling.
2. Preheat oven to 350.
3. In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and heavy cream, stirring together until combined. Set aside.
4. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
5. Mix in the sugar, greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, chocolate/cream mixture, and guinness, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
6. Pour this mixture into the springform pan.
7. Bake for 60 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave the cheesecake in the oven, with a wooden spoon in the oven door to hold it slightly ajar. Let sit for 60 minutes.
8. Allow cake to cool completely and then chill in the fridge overnight before serving.
