Ingredients

Scale

Crust

1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs or crushed biscotti
6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Cheesecake Filling

16 oz cream cheese, softened
0.75 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup cold brew coffee, strongly brewed (divided)
1.5 cups heavy whipping cream, cold

Assembly

12 pieces ladyfingers, cut in half
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions

Prepare the crust: Combine the graham cracker crumbs or crushed biscotti with melted butter until well mixed. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow the crust to set firmly.
Make the cheesecake mixture: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and half (1/2 cup) of the cold brew coffee, mixing until fully incorporated.
Whip the cream: In a separate chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, being careful to maintain the light and airy texture.
Assemble ladyfingers layer: Briefly dip the ladyfingers halves into the remaining 1/2 cup of cold brew coffee—do not soak them to prevent sogginess. Arrange the dipped ladyfingers evenly over the chilled crust in the springform pan.
Add cheesecake topping: Spread the prepared cheesecake mixture evenly over the layered ladyfingers, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Chill the cheesecake: Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the cheesecake is fully set and firm to the touch.
Finish and serve: Before serving, dust the top of the cheesecake generously with unsweetened cocoa powder. Slice and enjoy the tiramisu cheesecake chilled for best flavor and texture.

Notes

Do not soak the ladyfingers for too long to avoid making them overly soggy.
Allow the cheesecake to chill for at least 4 hours to ensure the best texture and firmness.
For an enhanced coffee flavor, consider adding a splash of coffee liqueur to the coffee soak.
