The Rural Voice, 1990-02, Page 46RURAL LIVING ... CHOCOLATE is a rich chocolate cheesecake recipe. One summer I bought several cheese- cake cookbooks and we revelled in a multitude of cheesecakes. Our favour- ite is this rich, very creamy, double chocolate. To make the chocolate curls on top look really spectacular, we top the cake with mounds of whipped cream under the curls. Rich Chocolate Cheesecake Crust: 1 1/2 cups crushed chocolate cookies 1/4 t. nutmeg 1/2 cup (125 ml) melted butter Filling: 6 oz. (185 g) dark chocolate 1 lb. (500 g) cream cheese 3/4 cup sugar 3 eggs 1 1/4 T. cocoa 1 1/2 t. vanilla essence 1 cup (250 g) sour cream 1/2 cup (125 mL) cream grated chocolate 1. Mix together the crushed cookies, nutmeg, and melted butter. Firmly press on the bottom of a 9 -inch (23 -cm) springform pan. 2. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl over hot water. 3. Press the cream cheese through a strainer and beat in the sugar until the mixture is smooth. 4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. 5. Mix in melted chocolate, cocoa, vanilla essence, and sour cream. 6. Beat the cream and fold into the chocolate mixture. 7. Pour into the prepared crust and bake in a 300°F (150°C) oven for about one hour. Turn off the heat and leave the cake in the oven with the door closed for 30 minutes. Open the door and leave the cake until it is cool. 8. Serve sprinkled with grated chocolate.
