Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Grease the base and sides of an 8x8-inch baking tin with 2 tsp oil, then line the base and sides with parchment paper, pressing to adhere.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, add 5 tbsp butter. Microwave until melted.
- To a medium bowl, add flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar and 1/4 tsp salt, then whisk to combine. Add melted butter, then mix until a crumbly dough forms.
- Transfer dough the prepared pan, then pat into the bottom of the pan. (TIP: Use a flat-bottomed measuring cup or glass to help smooth down the bottom.)
- Bake in the bottom of the oven for 8-10 min, until dry to the touch.
- Meanwhile, to a large microwave-safe bowl, add cream cheese. Microwave for 20-30 sec, until softened.
- Add white sugar to the bowl with the cream cheese, then beat using an electric hand mixer for 1 min, until smooth. Add egg, then beat until smooth. Beat in sour cream.
- Remove crust from the oven.
- Pour cheesecake mixture over crust, then bake for for 20-22 min in the middle of the oven, until set.
- Transfer cheesecake to the freezer to cool, 30 min.
- Once cheesecake is completely cool, to a small pot over medium heat, add heavy cream, chocolate chips, half the honey and 1/8 tsp salt.
- Heat for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Immediately pour ganache over cooled cheesecake and spread across the surface using the back of a spoon or spatula. Sprinkle flaky salt over top.
- Transfer cheesecake to the freezer for 2 hr, until set.
- To serve, run a sharp knife around the edges of the tin, then gently pull on the parchment paper to remove the cheesecake.
- Cut into bars using a sharp knife dipped in hot water.
