Ingredients

Scale

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
16 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp espresso powder

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of mini cheesecake pans.
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually mix in sugar until fluffy (3–4 minutes).
Add eggs one at a time into the cream cheese mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Stir in vanilla extract.
In another bowl, mix cocoa powder and espresso powder with two tablespoons of the cheesecake filling until smooth.
Pour half of the plain cheesecake batter into each mini pan. Dollop the mocha mixture on top and swirl with a knife.
Bake for about 20–25 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center. Cool completely before refrigerating for at least two hours.
