Chocolate Orange Cheesecake
Serves 12-16
Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
Cake:
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
1 pound cream cheese, room temp
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon orange extract
6 eggs
Mix graham crumbs with sugar, cocoa and cinnamon. Add melted butter and mix
well. Press into bottom and 2/3s up the sides of a
buttered spring form pan which has been covered on the outside with aluminum
foil. Refrigerate until time to fill. Melt chocolate in
microwave. Beat cream cheese in bowl on medium until smooth and fluffy, about
10 minutes. Beat in sour cream, 3/4 cup sugar and
extract. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each. Beat for 2 minutes more.
Gently stir in chocolate and mix for about 2 minutes.
Pour into prepared crust and bake at 350 degrees for 35-60 minutes, until
puffed and no longer shiny. (Center will look wet but will
firm as it cools.) Put pan on a wire rack to cool. When cool, remove foil and
sides of pan. Cover and refrigerate 4-5 hours minimum
before slicing.
