Description

This is one of those decadent, showstopper desserts that is rich and satisfying and not as difficult to make as you might think. It is great for Christmas and holidays and times when you just want to enjoy and not worry about the calories.

Ingredients

  • FOR CRUST
  • 2 cups Chocolate Cookie Crumbs (one 9 Oz Pkg Famous Chocolate Wafers)
  • ¾ cups Sugar
  • 6 Tablespoons Melted Butter
  • _____
  • FOR FILLING:
  • 2-¼ pounds Cream Cheese, At Room Temperature
  • 1-⅔ cup Sugar
  • 5 whole Eggs At Room Temperature
  • 1 cup Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
  • 1 cup Miniature Chocolate Chips
  • _____
  • FOR THE TOPPING:
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream, Chilled
  • 1 teaspoon Instant Coffee Powder
  • ¼ cups Powdered Sugar
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325º. Coat 10″ springform pan with non-stick vegetable oil spray.

Combine crushed chocolate cookies, 3/4 cup sugar and melted butter in a bowl. Press mixture into bottom and 1″ up sides of pan. Bake for 7 minutes, remove from oven. Keep oven at same temperature.

Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually mix in 1 2/3 cups sugar. Beat in eggs 1 at a time (don’t overbeat – you don’t want a lot of air beaten in). Blend in Baileys and vanilla, then chocolate chips.

Pour filling into crust. Bake cake until puffed, springy in the center and golden brown, about 1 hour and 20 to 30 minutes (do not underbake).

Cool cake completely. Can be made the day ahead and refrigerated until ready to serve.

Mix whipping cream and coffee powder in a chilled bowl, let set for a few minutes to dissolve. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; beat until peaks form.

Spread or pipe through large star tip over cooled cake. Garnish top with additional chocolate chips or chocolate curls.

Remove from springform pan to serve. Very rich!

I’ve made this cheesecake many times when I want to impress people. It is rich and delicious and I like it best in the winter when it is cold outside. But to tell you the truth I’d eat it in the summer, too.

Can you say Decadent? Wow, I love this recipe. I made it for my family’s Christmas Eve gathering last year and plan on making it again this year. I did not have chocolate chips, but it was still amazing. The second time I made it without the topping and it was still to die for. Thanks for posting this recipe!
