For a party-perfect cheesecake without cracks, try baking in a water bath. Place filled foil-wrapped springform pan in a large roasting pan and pour enough boiling water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of springform pan. Bake as directed.

I made this as a birthday cake, to try something different. I made it with just regular instant coffee which turned out great. I also switched up the chocolate crust for graham cracker crust which I unfortunately found to end up being quite soggy when we went to eat it but I don't feel as though having chocolate would've made a difference. That was the only downfall to this cheesecake, then again it could have been my own mistake that that ended up happening. Besides that, the actual cheesecake portion was delicious. I will definitely be trying this recipe again!

Wow! This was an amazing cheesecake! I have many, many recipes I use, and wanted to try something a little new and different when my in-laws came over for dinner, and this blew everyone away! The texture was so silky and just right sweet, and the whipped cream actually kept well spread on top right into the next day without watering down. It was really an excellent recipe, and one I will definately make again :)
