    Source of Recipe


    Marla

    List of Ingredients




    1 C graham cracker crumbs
    1 1/4 C sugar, divided
    1/4 C butter, melted
    1 envelope unflavored gelatin
    1/2 C cold water
    3 eggs, separated
    16 oz. cream cheese, softened
    2 tablespoons cocoa
    2 tablespoons Irish whiskey
    1 C whipping cream, whipped

    Recipe



    Combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and butter. Press onto bottom
    and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.

    Soften gelatin in water by stirring over low heat until dissolved. Beat egg
    yolks in a separate bowl. Mix in 3/4 cup sugar and beaten egg yolks to
    gelatin mixture. Cook stirring constantly, over low heat until slightly
    thickened, about 3 minutes.

    Beat cream cheese and cocoa, gradually mix in gelatin mixture and Irish
    whiskey, mixing until well blended. Chill until thickened, but not set, about
    20-30 minutes.

    Beat egg whites until foamy, gradually beat in the remaining sugar, beating
    until stiff peaks form. Fold egg whites and whipped cream into the chilled
    cheese mixture and pour over crust. Chill until firm, at least 3 hours.
    Garnish with chocolate curls or additional cocoa, if desired.
