Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine crushed chocolate cookies with melted unsalted butter and press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased springform pan. Bake for 8–10 minutes, then let cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Blend in vanilla extract, sour cream, and cooled espresso. Fold in all-purpose flour.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust, wrap the springform pan in aluminum foil, and place it in a larger pan filled with hot water. Bake for 60–70 minutes. Turn off the oven and let cool inside for about an hour.
- While cooling, prepare the ganache by heating heavy cream until just simmering. Pour it over the chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Mix in additional brewed espresso.
- Pour the ganache over the cheesecake, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4–6 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes
