    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
    1/4 cups sugar
    4 tablespoons melted butter
    .
    Combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Drizzle melted butter into the mixture to moisten. Using your fingertips, press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of a 10-inch round springform pan. Place the pan in the refrigerator 30 minutes or until crust is firm to the touch.

    Ingredients for Cheesecake:

    1 (11.5-ounce) package Bittersweet Plantation Dairy Creole Cream Cheese
    3 (8-ounce) packages Philadelphia cream cheese
    2/3 cup whipping cream
    6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
    1 1/2 cups sugar
    1 pinch nutmeg
    2 tablespoons vanilla
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    3 eggs

    Method: Preheat oven to 350°F. Test with an oven thermometer for accuracy.
    Soften Philadelphia cream cheese to room temperature. In a medium saucepan bring whipping cream to a boil. Add chocolate and heat, stirring constantly, until melted . Allow to cool. Place Philadelphia cream cheese, Creole cream cheese, sugar, nutmeg, vanilla and lemon juice into an electric mixer. Blend on medium-high speed until all lumps are removed. Blend in chocolate mixture. Turn mixer speed down to lowest setting and add 1 egg at a time, whipping completely between each addition. Do not over whip. Remove crust from the refrigerator and fill with batter. Rotate pan until batter mixture flattens out. Place on middle shelf of oven and bake 1 hour.

    NOTE: The cake should be slightly browned around the edges and may appear to be a little under cooked in the center. Remove from oven and allow to rest 15–20 minutes. Turn oven temperature up to 400°F. While cooling, if the cake
    develops a crack or two in the center do not panic it will be filled with the sour cream topping.

    Yields: 1 (10-inch) Cake
