Time 50m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 16

cooking spray
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
⅓ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 cup white sugar
⅔ cup butter
2 eggs
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon milk
½ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a square 9-inch baking pan with foil. Grease foil with cooking spray.
  • Beat cream cheese and sugar in a large mixing bowl until smooth and light. Add egg; beat until smooth. Set cheesecake layer aside.
  • Beat sugar and butter in a large bowl until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in cocoa powder and coffee granules.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together onto a large piece of waxed paper. Add all at once to the chocolate mixture; stir until blended. Add vanilla extract. Set 1/3 cup of batter aside in a small bowl; stir in milk. Fold chocolate chips and almonds into the remaining batter.
  • Pour larger portion of batter into the prepared pan. Carefully spread cream cheese mixture on top. Drop teaspoonfuls of reserved batter over the cream cheese layer. Run a clean knife through the batter and cheesecake to create swirls.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheesecake is set and a toothpick inserted halfway to the center of the pan comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
