Two favorite flavors—coffee and chocolate—combine in this treat from Renee Gastineau of crust Seattle, Washington. "The chocolate crumb crust and sprinkling of mini chips contrast nicely with the creamy coffee filling," she writes.

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • FILLING:

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 4 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add flour and beat well. Add eggs, beating on low speed just until combined.
  3. In a small bowl, combine cream and coffee granules; let stand for 1 minute. Add to cream cheese mixture with vanilla; beat just until combined. Stir in 3/4 cup chocolate chips. Pour into crust. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips.
