To make this heavenly dessert, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a small bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 4-inch springform pan.

Once the cheesecake is done baking, let it cool to room temperature. Pour the chocolate ganache over the top of the cheesecake, and let it set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
