Instructions
Step 1
Crush *oatmeal cookies* into fine crumbs using a food processor. Combine crumbs with *melted butter* and mix until fully incorporated. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form an even crust.
Bake the cookie crust in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, beat *cream cheese* and *sugar* until smooth and creamy. Add *eggs* one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the *vanilla extract* for added flavor. Pour this mixture over the cooled cookie crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake the cheesecake layer at 160°C (320°F) for 45 minutes or until the center is set. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
Step 3
Heat the *heavy cream* over low heat, stirring in *instant coffee* and *sugar* until dissolved. Add the soaked and squeezed *gelatin sheets*, stirring until melted.
Once the mixture is cool, whisk until light and fluffy. Spread the mousse over the cheesecake layer evenly, then refrigerate to set.
Step 4
Chop the *dark chocolate* into small pieces. In a saucepan, heat *heavy cream* and *brewed coffee* until hot but not boiling, then pour over the chocolate.
Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and shiny. Pour the ganache over the set *coffee mousse* and allow it to chill in the refrigerator until firm. Serve cold.

Faq
- How do I prevent cracks in my cheesecake?
To avoid cracks, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature, and don't overmix the batter. Baking in a water bath can also help cook the cheesecake evenly.
- Can I use a different crust?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with a graham cracker crust or even a nut-based crust for an extra flavor dimension.
- What if my ganache is too thick?
If your ganache is too thick, gently heat it in a microwave or over a double boiler, and add a splash of cream to adjust the consistency.
- How can I make my cheesecake more stable for longer events?
Consider adding a touch of gelatin to the filling, which will help maintain its shape, especially in warmer settings.
- What's the best way to store the cheesecake?
Cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, slice and wrap individual servings tightly before freezing them.
- Can I add a different topping?
Of course! Caramel drizzle or a berry compote can also be delicious choices, bringing a different flavor profile to your masterpiece.
