Ingredients:
chocolate crust
1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese, softened
1 (3-oz.) package cream cheese, softened
2/3 cup sugar
6 large eggs
1/3 cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
9 (1-oz.) semisweet chocolate baking squares

Directions:
1. Prepare Chocolate Crust as directed. Increase oven temperature to 375°.
2. Beat cream cheese and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer 2 to 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
3. Microwave whipping cream in a 1-cup microwave-safe measuring cup at HIGH 30 seconds or until very hot. Stir in coffee granules until completely dissolved. Cool coffee mixture slightly.
4. Microwave chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl at HIGH 1 minute. Microwave 1 more minute, stirring at 15-second intervals. Add melted chocolate, vanilla, and coffee mixture to cream cheese mixture. Beat at low speed just until blended. Pour mixture into prepared Chocolate Crust.
5. Bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until edges are firm and center is still soft. Let cool to room temperature (about 1 hour); cover and chill 8 hours. Cut into squares. Garnish, if desired.
