Not only is this no-bake chocolate cheesecake deliciously rich and amazing, it is also so easy to make. It’s the perfect no-bake chocolate cheesecake!
Cheesecake is a very emotional issue. Did you know that?
Apparently, if you put the word “no-bake” next to “cheesecake,” you better watch your back if you find yourself in a dark alley somewhere.
Even in a well-lit kitchen, you may not be safe.
I happen to be very nondiscriminatory when it comes to cheesecake (I’m not afraid).

7 tablespoons butter, melted
CHEESECAKE:
3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) powdered sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups (9 ounces) bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled to room temperature (see note)
DIRECTIONS:
- FOR THE CRUST, combine the chocolate graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter together in a small bowl until the mixture looks sandy and wet. Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides, about an inch, of a 9-inch springform pan or into a 9.5-inch pie plate. Refrigerate while making the filling.
- FOR THE FILLING, in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer (or in an electric stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment), mix the cream cheese until smooth and creamy, 1-2 minutes. Add the powdered sugar and beat again for a minute or so until combined. Add the sour cream and vanilla and mix.
