    List of Ingredients




    Crust:
    1 1/2 cups almonds
    1/4 cup vanilla whey protein powder
    1/4 cup butter -- melted

    Blackbottom Layer:
    3 sugar-free dark chocolate bars -- about 1.5 ounces
    each
    1/4 cup heavy cream

    Mockahlua Filling:
    1 pkg cream cheese -- (3 oz) softened (3 to 8)
    3/4 cup Splenda
    3/4 cup sour cream
    1 tablespoon vanilla
    4 eggs
    1/3 cup Mockahlua

    Recipe



    For Crust: Using a food processor with the S-blade in place, grind
    the almonds fine. Add the protein powder, and pulse two or three
    times to
    blend. Add the butter, and pulse 2-3 more times. Turn into a
    springform pan that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
    Press firmly and
    evenly into bottom of pan, and just far enough up at the sides to
    cover the seam at the bottom of the pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or
    until lightly
    golden. Cool.

    For black bottom layer: Over lowest possible heat melt the chocolate
    bars - if you have a heat diffuser or a double boiler, use it;
    chocolate burns
    easily. When chocolate is melted, stir in cream, blending well. Pour
    over crust, and spread evenly.

    Preheat oven to 325 (or let it cool off to 325!)

    Preheat oven to 350°F.

    For Mockahlua Filling In large bowl, using electric mixer, beat the
    cream cheese until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl often.
    Next beat
    in the Splenda and the sour cream, and mix well. Beat in the vanilla,
    and then the eggs, one by one, beating until very smooth and creamy.
    Finally,
    beat in the Mockahlua, and mix well. Pour into the crust you've
    already coated with chocolate. Place in oven, and on the oven rack
    below or on the
    floor of the oven place a pie pan of water. Bake for 1 hour. Cool in
    pan on wire rack. Chill well before serving.
