Internet
List of Ingredients
Crust:
------
1 cup chocolate wafer crumbs
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
3 tbsp butter or margarine, melted
Filling:
--------
4 pkgs (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tbsp orange-flavored liqueur
1/2 tsp grated orange peal
Recipe
Heat oven to 325 F. Mix crumbs, cinnamon, and butter. Press onto
bottom of 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 minutes.
Increase oven temperature to 350 F. Beat cream cheese and sugar at
medium speed with electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs, one at a
time, beating well after each addition. Blend in sour cream and
vanilla.
Separate batter into 2 equal parts. Blend chocolate into one part.
Blend liqueur and peel into remaining part. Pour chocolate batter over
crust. Bake 30 minutes.
Reduce oven temperatue to 325 F.
Spoon remaining batter over chocolate layer. Continue baking another 30
minutes. Turn off oven and prop open oven door; remove cheesecake when
oven has cooled. Loosen cake from rim of pan.
I think cheesecake in general is best when chilled over night, but it is
not necessary. When I made this this past weekend, I garnished it with
dollops of fresh whipped cream and twisted slices of orange.
