Ingredients
- 1/4 c. butter (1/2 stick) sweet, unsalted
- 1/4 c. sugar
- 1 1/2 c. flour
- Grated rind of 1 lemon
- 4-5 (8 ounce) packages. cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/3 c. sugar
- 5 whole large eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 c. heavy cream
- 1 T vanilla extract
- 1/4 c. Kahlua (Amaretto works too)
- 2-3 (1 ounce) sq. semi-sweet chocolate
Directions
- With mixer, cream the butter and sugar. Add in the flour and lemon rind and mix for two min, or possibly till thoroughly blended. Remove from the mixer, roll the dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour. After 1 hour, roll the dough to 1/8 inch thickness and place in the bottom of a cake pan. (I pat into bottom of a 9 inch springform pan - easier.)To make cheesecake filling, in a large bowl cream together the cream cheese and sugar, making sure there are no lumps. Add in the large eggs, egg yolks and cream and continue to mix till smooth. Add in the vanilla and Kahlua, mix thoroughly. Pour the mix onto the crust.
- In a double boiler, heat the chocolate. Then drizzle the chocolate over the cheesecake mix with a spoon in a thin stream. With a paring knife swirl the chocolate through the mix. Bake in a 275 degree oven for 2 hrs or possibly till set. Turn off the oven and allow the cake to remain in oven for 1 hour. Remove and chill. Excellent. (Can be drizzled with melted candy bars or possibly chocolate chips.)
