Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease and flour a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, combine the cocoa packet from the cake mix, 1/4 cup of the dry cake mix (reserve the rest for the crust), softened cream cheese, and the melted (but not hot!) milk chocolate. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until smooth and fully incorporated. (2 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually pour in the heavy cream and continue beating on high speed until the filling is light and airy. (1 minute)

04

Step
3 mins

In a separate medium bowl, combine the remaining dry cake mix with the melted butter. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (3 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Evenly sprinkle the crumb mixture into the prepared pan, pressing gently to form a base. (2 minutes)

06

Step
1 mins

Pour the milk chocolate cheesecake filling over the crumb crust, spreading evenly. (1 minute)

07

Step
35 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set around the edges but still has a slight jiggle in the center. (35 minutes)

08

Step
4 hrs

Allow the cheesecake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to fully set. (240 minutes)

09

Step
1 mins

Before serving, garnish with generous dollops of sweetened whipped cream and a scattering of fresh, vibrant strawberries.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cheesecake filling.
Ensure your cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth, lump-free filling.
Do not overbake the cheesecake, as this will result in a dry texture. A slight jiggle in the center indicates it's done.
For a cleaner cut, run a thin knife under hot water and dry it before each slice.
Experiment with different toppings! Chocolate shavings, raspberries, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce would all be delightful additions.

    The crust was perfectly crumbly and complemented the chocolate filling perfectly.

  • Mary Marvin

    Be careful not to overmix the filling, as it can result in a tougher cheesecake.

  • Paula Steuber

    I found the crust a little too crumbly, so next time I'll try adding a bit more melted butter.
