  2. For Cheesecake: In mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, 2/3 cup sugar, sour cream, and cornstarch. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Beat in vanilla extract. Remove 3/4 cup of mixture to separate bowl and stir in cocoa powder and 3 tablespoons sugar. Set aside. Stir amaretto and almond extract into the remaining mixture.
  3. Pour half the amaretto mixture over the crust. Spoon half of the cocoa mixture over the amaretto mixture. Pour remaining amaretto mixture over the cocoa mixture. Top with remaining cocoa mixture. Using a knife and without disturbing the crust, swirl the blade through the batter to create the marble effect.
  4. Bake at 425 F for 10 minutes. Lower temperature to 225 F and bake for 1 hour or till the center no longer looks wet or shiny. Remove the cake from the over and run a knife around the inside edge of the pan. Chill, uncovered, overnight.
