Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and prepare a water bath by placing a roasting pan filled with hot water on the bottom rack.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs and melted unsalted butter until fully integrated. Press into the bottom of a springform pan.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Incorporate hot cocoa mix until fully blended.
  4. Pour the filling over the prepared crust, place the pan in the water bath, and bake for 50-60 minutes.
  5. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour with the door slightly ajar. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in marshmallow fluff until combined.
  7. Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, top with marshmallow whipped cream, and garnish if desired.
