Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups chocolate cookie crumbs (like Oreo)

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

2 cups cream cheese, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup sour cream

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

8 oz semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled slightly

8 oz white chocolate, melted and cooled slightly

½ cup cocoa powder

½ cup mini chocolate chips (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.

    Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter, mixing until well combined. Press about a tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner to form the crust.

      Prepare the cheesecake filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add in the granulated sugar, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

        Divide the mixture: Separate the cheesecake mixture into three portions. In the first portion, add the melted semisweet chocolate, mixing until totally incorporated. In the second portion, add the melted white chocolate. Leave the third portion plain (with just cocoa powder) to create a chocolate layer.

          Layer the cheesecakes: Start by spooning a layer of the semisweet chocolate cheesecake batter into each cupcake liner. Follow with a layer of the cocoa cheesecake batter, and then finish with the white chocolate cheesecake batter. You can swirl the tops gently with a toothpick for a marbled effect if desired.

            Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly. The cheesecakes will firm up as they cool.

              Cool and chill: Remove from the oven and let the cheesecakes cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to the fridge. Chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

                Serve: Before serving, optionally top the cheesecakes with mini chocolate chips or shaved chocolate for an extra touch of indulgence.
