List of Ingredients

9 ounces chocolate wafer cookies
3 tablespoons melted butter
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup raspberry jam
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla


Recipe

Grind cookies to a fine powder, mix with the butter and press into the bottom and up the sides about an inch of a 9" springform pan (or 2 7" pans). Refrigerate while making the filling. Combine the chips and cream in a microwave safe bowl and heat at high for 3 to 4 minutes or until smooth. Stir every minute. Mix in the jam, stirring until dissolved, let cool 10 minutes.

Mix the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each egg. Add the vanilla and the chocolate raspberry mixture. Mix well. Bake 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours at 325ºF or until cake is set around the edges but still jiggles slightly in the center. Cool and put in the fridge for at least 6 hours.
