White Chocolate Cheesecake from the Bears lair Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Crust
  • Butter springform pan with softened butter
  • Combine graham wafer crumbs, melted butter, nutmeg & sugar in food processor or bowl & process until well-mixed. Press evenly over bottom & 2/3rds up sides of pan. Set aside.
  • Filling
  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Melt chocolate in double boiler. Slowly stir in cream until smooth. Remove from heat & let cool slightly. In large bowl, with electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add egg-yolks one at a time, making sure to blend well, & stopping to scrape down sides of bowl after each addition. Add chocolate mixture, vanilla & salt. Beat at medium speed for two minutes.
  • Beat egg-whites in a separate mixing bowl, with electric mixer on low speed, until foamy. Beat on high until soft, rounded peaks form.
  • Fold egg-whites into chocolate mixture.
  • Pour into crust.
  • Place pan on baking sheet & bake at 350 F for 55 minutes.
  • The cake will rise & the top will wiggle slightly when shaken. Turn off
  • heat & let cake stand in oven for one hour (It may sink).
  • Remove cake from oven & place on wire rack in a draft-free place &
  • cool cake to room temperature.
  • Topping
  • Melt chocolate in double boiler. Slowly stir in cream until mixture is smooth. Stir in flavoring.
  • Pour topping over cool cake.
  • Cover with cello-wrap & refrigerate overnight.
  • This cake may be tightly covered & refrigerated up to three days.
  • It may be frozen in the pan, tightly covered with cello-wrap &
  • aluminum-foil. Defrost wrapped cake in refrigerator overnight.
  • Three hours before serving, remove cake from refrigerator & remove side of springform.
  • Garnish if desired.
  • I find it unnecessary to add a garnish to the cake, the rich flavor is quite satisfying.
  • For fullest flavor, this cake must be served at room temperature.
  • Serves up to twelve people.
