Ingredients
Crust Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate graham crackers crumbs
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 3 TBSP Sugar
Cheesecake Ingredients
- 2 teaspoon espresso powder
- 1 TBSP water
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 2 eggs room temperature
Instructions
- preheat oven to 325˚
- mix crumbs, melted butter, and 3 TBSP sugar together and press in the bottom of 6 half pint wide mouth jars, set aside
- mix the espresso powder with the water and let it sit until it's completely dissolved 2-3 mintues
- mix the cream cheese and the sugar together until well blended, then mix in the espresso powder
- add the eggs one at a time blending well after each addition
- carefully divide evenly between the six prepared jars, I used a cookie scoop to get the batter in the jar without making much of a mess
- place jars in a baking pan and place in the oven
- pour water around the jars about halfway up the jars
- bake for 30-32 minutes or until the top is set
- take out of the oven carefully
- remove the jars from the baking pan, use tongs to avoid getting burned
- place on a cooling rack until fully cool
- top with optional chocolate graham cracker crumbs
Notes
- this recipe calls for baking the cheesecakes in wide mouth half pint jars
- they also need to be baked in a baking pan half filled with water
