Chocolate Lover's Cheesepie

Prep time: 15 minutes
Serves: 10
Since chocolate retains its shape when heated in a microwave, you can't judge by appearance when it's melted. Always stir halfway through the heating time to prevent it from scorching.

Ingredients

• 3 pkgs. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
• 3/4 c, sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 2 c. (12 oz. pkg.) Hershey's Mini Chips semi-sweet chocolate, divided
• 1 extra serving size packaged graham cracker crumb crust ( 9 oz.)
• 2 tbsp. whipping cream

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 450°. Beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with mixer until well blended. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Stir in 1 2/3 c. small chocolate chips; pour into crust. Bake 10 min. Without opening oven door, reduce temperature to 250°, continue baking 30 min. or just until set. Remove from oven to wire rack. Cool completely. Cover; refrigerate until thoroughly chilled. Place remaining 1/3 c. chips and whipping cream in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 20 to 30 sec. or just until chips are melted and mixture is smooth when stirred. Cool slightly; spread over top of cheesepie. Refrigerate 15 min. or until topping is set. Cover; refrigerate leftovers.
