Frosted Chocolate Chip Cheesecake

SUBMITTED BY: Arlene Butler 

"Heavenly is a good description for this luscious dessert, conveniently made a day ahead. When I dont have a candy bar on hand, I melt cup of chocolate chips to use in the frosting. Whipped cream can be used in place of the whipped topping. --Arlene Butler, Ogden, Utah"

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 4 ounces milk chocolate candy bar, chopped
  • 2 cups whipped topping
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a bowl, combine wafer crumbs and butter. Press onto the bottom and 1-1/2 in. up the sides of a greased 9-in. springform pan. Chill for 15 minutes or until set.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour into crust.
  3. Place pan on a baking sheet. Bake at 325 degrees F for 55-60 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight.
  4. For frosting, in a microwave-safe bowl, melt candy bar; stir until smooth. Cool to room temperature. Gradually stir in whipped topping. Remove sides of springform pan. Frost top of cheesecake; garnish with almonds. Refrigerate leftovers.
