Chocolate Cheese Cake:

Ingredients for the Cake:

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
• ¼ teaspoon groun cinnamon
• 6 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
• 4 packages (8 ounce size) cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 5 eggs
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, melted
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Combine cookie crumbs, cinnamon and butter and press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake 8-10 minutes or until set. Remove from oven and cool.

Mix together the cream cheese and sugar until well blended. Add in flour. On low speed, add the eggs, one at a time and blend. Blend in the chocolate and vanilla.

Pour over the prepared crust. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 300° for an additional 45 minutes.

Turn the oven off, but leave the cake inside for another hour. Remove from oven and cool completely. Refrigerate until serving.

Now....here are some helpful tips for cheesecake success!

Some Important Tips for Baking Your Cheesecake:

1) all your ingredients should be at room temperature!
2) combine everything on low or medium speed (do not over mix)!
3) running the tip of a sharp knife around the top edge right after baking, plus cooling to room temperature before refrigerating will keep the cake from cracking.
