Directions

  1. Make crumb crust as directed in separate recipe, using chocolate wafer cookies instead of graham crackers. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Cook sugar in a dry heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a fork, till melted and pale golden brown. Cook caramel without stirring, swirling pan, till deep golden brown.

Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate till smooth.
  3. Stir in lowfat sour cream.
  4. Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer till fluffy, then beat in chocolate mix on low speed. Beat in Large eggs, 1 at a time, then vanilla, beating on low speed till each ingredient is incorporated and scraping down bowl between additions.
  5. Put springform pan with crust in a shallow baking pan. Pour filling into crust and bake in baking pan (to catch drips) in middle of oven 55 min, or possibly till cake is set 3 inches from edge but center is still slightly wobbly when pan is gently shaken.
  6. Run a knife around top edge of cake to loosen and cold completely in springform pan on a rack. (Cake will continue to set as it cools.)
