Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
2. In a food processor, process cookies into fine crumbs. Add butter and process 30 seconds. Press crumb mixture into bottom of 9-inch springform pan; refrigerate.
3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add sour cream and cornstarch; then, with mixer on low, add sweetened condensed milk. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
4. Remove one cup of cream cheese filling and pour remaining filling into chilled crust. Add melted chocolate to cup of filling; mix thoroughly. Drop chocolate mixture by spoonfuls on top of filling. Swirl a knife through batter to distribute chocolate and create marbled appearance.
5. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until top is puffed, golden near edges and center moves slightly when pan is moved. Turn off oven and allow cheesecake to cool in oven with door ajar. When cool, cover and refrigerate overnight.
6. In a chilled metal or glass bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form, gradually add sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form (do not overbeat). Remove sides of cheesecake pan and place cheesecake on a serving plate. Using a pastry bag, pipe a frill of whipped cream around base of cheesecake. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
