No-Bake KitKat Chocolate Cheesecake
A buttery cookie crust, creamy chocolate cheesecake packed with crunchy KitKat pieces, and a glossy chocolate topping. No oven needed!
Ingredients
For the crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
16 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
7 oz semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled until lukewarm
1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
4 standard KitKat bars (1.5 oz each), chopped
For the topping:
4 oz semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
½ cup heavy cream
Extra KitKat pieces, for decoration
How to Make It
Mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a parchment-lined 8-inch springform pan. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Whip the cold heavy cream in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form.
Beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Mix in the cooled melted chocolate, then stir in the chopped KitKat. Gently fold in the whipped cream.
Spread the filling over the crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, until firm.
For the topping, heat the cream until steaming. Pour over the chopped chocolate, let stand for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth. Cool until barely warm.
