Baileys Marble Cheesecake




Source of Recipe


Now....you're cooking!


List of Ingredients




Crust:
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs


Filling:
3 packages (8 oz. each) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
2 cups sour cream
1/4 cup Baileys Irish Cream liqueur
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 squares semi-sweet chocolate, melted


Topping:
5 squares semi-sweet chocolate
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla




Recipe



Crust:
Combine butter and chocolate wafer crumbs. Press into the bottom of a 10" springform pan.


Bake for 10 minutes at 325 degrees F.


Filling:
In a large mixer bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time while beating. Stir in sour cream, Baileys, and vanilla.


Pour 2/3 of the cheesecake mixture over the crust. To the remaining mixture stir the melted chocolate. Spoon the chocolate mixture by large spoonfuls over the plain cheesecake mixture. Run a knife through it a few times to create a marbled effect.


Bake at 325 degrees F. for about 1 and 1/2 hours, until the centre is raised and set. Let cool to room temperature.


Topping:
Coarsely chop the chocolate. Mix with whipping cream and butter and melt (on the stove or in microwave). Stir in vanilla. Spread over top of the cheesecake.


Refrigerate at least 6 hours, or overnight.
