- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust.

- Mix espresso and coffee liqueur together. Dip ladyfinger biscuits briefly and layer over the cheesecake filling. Pour remaining batter over the biscuits.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, until the center is set and edges are lightly browned.
