1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
3 pounds cream cheese, softened
2 cup sugar, in all
6 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup flour

Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the crumbs and the butter
together. Mix well and press into a 10-inch springform pan. In a food
processor, with the metal blade, mix the cream cheese until smooth.
Add the sugar and blend. Add the eggs one at a time to thoroughly
incorporate into the cheese mixture. Add the heavy cream. Add the
flour, salt and vanilla and blend until smooth. In a steady stream,
pour in the melted chocolate. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake for 1
hour and 15 minutes or until the cake is set. Remove from the oven
and with a knife loosen the sides from the pan. This will prevent the
cake from splitting down the center. Completely cool the cake before
cutting. For the sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients
together and allow to sit for 2 to 3 hours. Place a piece of the cake
on the plate. Spoon the raspberries over the top. Garnish with
whipped cream, chocolate curls, mint sprigs, powdered sugar, and
cocoa powder.
