Ingredients
crust
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- pinch salt
filling
- 16 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup Irish Cream liqueur
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 Tbsp instant espresso powder

- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter your 9x13 pan.
- To make the crust, cream the butter and sugar and then blend in the flour and salt until the mixture is crumbly. Pat into your prepared pan, pressing down slightly with your fingers to get an even layer.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Make the filling by creaming the cream cheese and sugar together. Make sure your ingredients are at true room temperature to avoid a lumpy batter.
- Beat in the Irish Cream, and then the eggs, one at a time.
- Blend in the instant espresso, cocoa powder, vanilla, and flour.
- Turn the batter out onto the crust and smooth out evenly.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes just until the cheesecake is set.
- Let cool before slicing.
- Serve with whipped cream, and garnish with shaved chocolate.
