Ingredients

  • 8 servings
  • Crust:
  • 1 cup finely crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (I was told to use Oreo cookies.)
  • 1 Tbsp. margarine or butter, melted
  • Filling:
  • 3 (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 3 eggs
  • 8 square Baker's Semi-Sweet Chocolate, melted, slightly cooled
  • 1/4 cup hazelnot liqueur (optional)
  • Topping:
  • 1/2 cup packed soft brown
  • 1 Tbsp. water

Directions

Heat oven to 325(F).

Crust:
Mix crumb and margarine/butter; press onto bottom of 9-inch springform pan. (Take the sides off while you bake.) Bake 10 min. Let it cool completely.

Fliing:
Add the sides of the springform pan.

Beat cream cheese, sugar, & vanilla at medium speed with electric mixer until well blended.
Add eggs, one at a time, mixing at low speed after each addition; just until blended.

Blend in melted chocolate and liqueur; pour over crust.

Bake 60-65 minutes ot until center is almost set. (It will look "uncooked" in the center rind, but it will set once it's cooled.)

Once it's cooked, refrigerate 5 hours or overnight.

Topping:
Just before serving, heat broiler. Mix brown sugar and water; spread over ckeesecake. Place on cookie sheet. Broil 4 - 6 inches from heat 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until topping is bubbly.
