Easy No Bake Chocolate Cheesecake for 10

Instructions:

1. Combine chocolate crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar in a bowl. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
2. Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Freeze for 10 minutes to set.
3. Beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together using an electric mixer until smooth and cloud-like.
4. Sift in the cocoa powder and add the vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until the color is a uniform deep mahogany.
5. Slowly pour in the melted and slightly cooled semi-sweet chocolate, folding it in with a spatula until fully incorporated.
6. In a separate chilled bowl, whip the 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture using a cut-and-fold technique.
8. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Top with additional whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
9. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, before slicing.
