Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (for cake)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (for cheesecake)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs (2 for cake, 2 for cheesecake)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (divided)
  • 24 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper, grease the sides, and wrap the outside in foil for a water bath.
  2. For the cake layer, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and 3/4 cup sugar. In another bowl, mix 2 eggs, milk, butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Combine and pour into the pan. Bake for 15 minutes and let cool slightly.
  3. For the cheesecake layer, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add 3/4 cup sugar, 2 eggs, sour cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix until smooth.
  4. Pour cheesecake batter over the cake layer and smooth the top.
  5. Place the pan in a water bath and bake for 50–60 minutes until the center is just set. Cool in oven with door cracked for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Heat heavy cream until hot and pour over chocolate chips. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir into a smooth ganache.
  7. Pour ganache over the chilled cheesecake and spread gently. Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the ganache for best results.
  • Chill overnight for clean slices and fully developed flavor.
  • Run a hot knife around the edges before unmolding for a flawless finish.
