Time 9h55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

⅓ cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
4 teaspoons unsalted butter, melted
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
⅓ cup white sugar
1 large egg
¼ cup hot strongly brewed coffee
¼ cup bittersweet chocolate chips (such as Ghirardelli® 60%)
2 teaspoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Prepare 3 (4-inch) heart-shaped springform pans by wrapping the outside with aluminum foil.
  • Combine cookie crumbs and melted butter in a small bowl, tossing to coat. Press mixture evenly in the bottom of the prepared pans.
  • Beat cream cheese with a fork in a medium bowl until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating with the fork until well blended. Add egg and mix well.
  • Pour hot coffee over chocolate chips in a small bowl. Stir until melted and smooth. Add to cream cheese mixture and blend well. Stir in heavy cream, vanilla, and salt; mix until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
  • Pour 1 cup water into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Place a steamer rack in the bottom and place 2 batter-filled pans on the rack. Top with another steamer rack and add the remaining batter-filled pan. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 6 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes.
  • Remove the pans from the pot and allow to cool completely at room temperature. Refrigerate 8 hours to overnight. Release cheesecakes from the springform pans and top as desired before serving.
