Chocolate Cheesecake In Oatmeal!

These chocolate espresso cheesecake overnight oats is a decadent treat to start your day!

In this recipe, I'll be showing you how to make a delicious overnight oats recipe that I recently came up with! Now, me being me, I was really craving some chocolate. What’s new? I had been enjoying some fun cheesecake oats, such as these Blueberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats. As delicious as cheesecake is, a chocolate cheesecake is one epic match! I don’t think I’ve had that many before, but thinking about a good chocolate cheesecake right now is really making my tummy growl. I love the creaminess of cheesecake with the classic decadence of chocolate! Yum!

What better way to enjoy two favourite things than to come up with a chocolate cheesecake overnight oats! These oats ended up being extremely creamy, rich and decadent, and very easy to prepare!

Check out the ingredients you’ll need for these superb overnight oats!

Rolled oats
Cocoa powder
Milk
Greek yogurt
Honey
Vanilla
Plain Greek yogurt
Cream cheese
Espresso powder
Whipped cream and chocolate chips on top!

PS: Notice this is the ONLY overnight oats recipe I have that has no chia seeds. Why? Well, try this recipe and you’ll see for yourself. In the morning, they’ll be EXTREMELY thick! The chia seeds wouldn’t add much additional thickness. But of course, feel free to add them if you really want to! They’re packed with fibre and omega-3 fatty acids with a good balance of carbs and protein too, so if you want the nutritional benefits of chia seeds, then by all means go ahead!

A Morning Pick-Me Up!

I’d have to say that while a chocolate cheesecake for breakfast sure would grab my attention, what really enhances these overnight oats even more is the hint of espresso powder added to the base. I’ve had a coffee cake maybe once before, but I know that it was wonderful! I had some espresso powder on hand so I decided to incorporate it in these oats. I actually don’t drink any coffee in the morning, which I guess is a good thing because I don’t rely on anything to wake me up! Actually, what will get me up in the morning (after some grogginess) is looking forward to making something exciting for breakfast in the morning. Well, these were overnight oats, so there was nothing to prepare except for the toppings, but I definitely was looking forward to taking a nice big bite out of these oats!

I don’t think the amount of espresso powder is really enough to give you a huge boost of energy in the morning, but what I can tell you is that it really enhances these creamy oats and complements the cocoa very well. I really recommend you don’t skip this step!

How to Prepare These Chocolate Espresso Cheesecake Overnight Oats?

These chocolate cheesecake oats will certainly feel like you’re having dessert for breakfast! Some extra good news here is that these oats take significantly less time than actually making a chocolate cheesecake. Woohoo!

Let’s start by adding the oats, milk, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, cocoa powder, espresso powder, vanilla and honey in a large mixing bowl.

Mix all of these ingredients really well!

Let cool in the fridge ideally overnight or for 4-6 hours. Finish these oats off with some whipped cream, honey for sweetness, and some whipped cream to really make it feel like you're having a rich and creamy chocolate cheesecake for breakfast! If you’d like, you can skip the aerosol can and make your own Amazing Whipped Cream at Home! I like to add a few chocolate chips on top to mimic those little chocolate pearls you find on cheesecakes!

There you have it! Now, it’s time for you to gather your ingredients and get a bowl ready to prepare your next delicious breakfast recipe! Have it waiting for you in the fridge before a busy morning and enjoy!
