Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
½ cup granulated sugar
24 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
3 large eggs
1 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
½ cup chocolate fudge sauce

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined. Press firmly into a springform pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Allow it to cool.
In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Add sour cream and blend well. Incorporate eggs one at a time until fully mixed.
Fold in cranberry sauce and half of the chocolate fudge sauce gently to create swirls.
Pour the cheesecake batter onto the cooled crust, drizzle with remaining fudge sauce, and create swirls with a knife.
Bake for 45-55 minutes until edges are firm but center is slightly jiggly. Cool at room temperature before refrigerating for at least four hours or overnight.
