Ingredients
  

For the crust:

1 ½ cups crushed chocolate cookie crumbs (like Oreos)

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons sugar

For the cheesecake filling:

16 oz (450g) cream cheese, softened

½ cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 cup Kit Kat bars, chopped (plus some for topping)

For the chocolate ganache:

½ cup heavy cream

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed chocolate cookie crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of 8 individual serving dishes or a springform pan to create the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

    Make the cheesecake filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice, mixing until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well blended. Lastly, fold in the chopped Kit Kat bars, reserving a few for later.

      Assemble the cheesecakes: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

        Prepare the chocolate ganache: In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and glossy.

          Top the cheesecakes: Once the cheesecakes are set, pour the chocolate ganache over each cheesecake and spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining chopped Kit Kat bars on top for garnish.

            Chill and serve: Return the cheesecakes to the refrigerator for an additional 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set. Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious No-Bake Kit Kat Cheesecakes!
