Chocolate Marbled Cheesecake

 INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups crushed chocolate graham crackers (Substitute with McVitie’s Digestive Biscuit)

6 tablespoons butter, softened

 

2 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, chopped

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened (Philadelphia cream cheese)

1/2 cup white sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs

 ——————————————————————————–

 DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and butter. Mix well and press into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate until melted. Stir occasionally until chocolate is smooth.

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until creamy and smooth. Blend in the eggs one at a time. Remove 1 cup of cream cheese mixture and combine with melted chocolate.

Spread plain batter into the crust. Drop the chocolate mixture randomly over the top. With the tip of a knife, Swirl the batter to create a marble effect.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until center is set. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight before serving.

I just omit all the chocolate part…

 Have fun trying ok…
