Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and gather a 9-inch springform pan. Lightly grease the sides.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted unsalted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of the pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 10 minutes until slightly golden.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar until creamy. Add sour cream and brewed espresso.
  5. Once crust has cooled slightly, pour the cream cheese mixture over it and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 60 minutes until edges are set but center jiggles slightly.
  7. Turn off the oven, leave cheesecake inside for 1 hour to cool.
  8. Refrigerate and chill for at least 7 hours, preferably overnight.
  9. When ready to serve, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  10. Carefully release the springform pan, drizzle caramel sauce over the top and add dollops of whipped cream.
