To make this Cherry Chocolate Cheesecake Crumble, you will need the following ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
For the cheesecake filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the cherry topping:
- 2 cups fresh cherries, pitted and halved
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
For the chocolate crumble:
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup melted butter
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well and press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside to cool.
Next, prepare the cheesecake filling. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Pour the mixture over the cooled crust and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheesecake is set.
While the cheesecake is baking, prepare the cherry topping. In a saucepan, combine the cherries, sugar, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and the cherries are soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
To make the chocolate crumble, combine the flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Once the cheesecake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Spread the cherry topping over the cheesecake and sprinkle the chocolate crumble on top. Return the cheesecake to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the crumble is golden brown.
