Mad Rich Chocolate Cheesecake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

crust
18 Oreo cookies
2 tablespoons margarine, melted
filling
4 -5 ounces bittersweet chocolate or 4 -5 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 (2 package) lb cream cheese
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tablespoons whipping cream
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

(for crust) crush oreos and mix with the melted margarine; press into a 9\" springform pan.
Melt the chocolate (I do it in the microwave, stirring fairly often) and set aside to cool.
Cream together cream cheese and sugar.
Beat in eggs, one at a time.
Add whipping cream, cocoa powder and vanilla, and the melted chocolate; stir until mixed.
Spread mixture evenly on top of cake pan.
Bake at 350\u00b0 for 45-50 minutes, until the top of the cake has almost (but not quite!) set.
Let cool, then chill in fridge until ready to serve.
It's good topped with sliced fruit!
