Preparation
Step 1
1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
For crust:
2. Combine the flour, pecans, butter; and brown sugar mix well. Press the mixture onto the bottom of an ungreased 8" or 9" square baking pan. Bake 15-16 minutes, or until light golden brown.
For batter:
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla extract until well blended. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well. Set 1 C. plain batter aside.
4. Combine melted chocolate into mixing bowl.
Spoon the chocolate batter over the crust. Pour plain batter over chocolate batter. Using the blade of a butter knife, swirl the batter to create a marbled effect.
5. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until center is set. Cool on rack to room temperature.
6. Cover and transfer the pan to the refrigerator to chill, approximately three hours. Store covered in the refrigerator.
