Ingredients:
– 24 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1 cup sour cream
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 3 eggs
– 1 cup shredded coconut
– 1 cup chopped pecans
– 1 cup chocolate ganache (for topping)
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat until it’s silky smooth and creamy!
3. Add in the sour cream and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine all those delicious flavors.
4. Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing just until everything is nicely combined.
5. Gently fold in the shredded coconut and chopped pecans for the ultimate texture and flavor boost.
6. Pour the cheesecake batter into a greased 9-inch springform pan—make sure it’s nice and even!
7. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set. You want it to be firm but still a bit wobbly!
8. Once baked, let your cheesecake cool completely before carefully removing it from the pan. Patience is key!
9. Finally, drizzle that rich chocolate ganache over the top before serving. Get ready for a slice of heaven!
Enjoy!
