- Take out the coffee layer from freezer.
- Spoon the chocolate batter into pan evenly. Freeze for 30+ min.
- Take out the pan from freezer, and with the rest of the batter either choose an alternative flavor to make or spoon the plain batter as a top layer of the cheesecake.
- Make a water bath. (E.g. fill a deep and larger pan with water. Place the “9×13” cheesecake pan into it.) Highly suggest this step – it makes sure the cheesecake is baked evenly.
