1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
3 tablespoons sugar
6 1-ounce squares semisweet chocolate (can use chips)
3/4 cup butter or margarine
8 ounces cream cheese, softened

Combine first four ingredients, stirring well. Press firmly into bottom and 2 1/2 inches up sides of a lightly greased 7-inch springform pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes; cool on wire rack. Reduce temperature to 300 degrees.

Combine chocolate and 3/4 cup butter in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until smooth. Cool. Beat cream cheese at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Add 3/4 cup sugar, beating well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in chocolate mixture; pour into prepared crust.
