Chocolate Cheesecake Bars Need to make day before. Ingredients:
crust |
4 ounce chocolate cookie, wafers (about 20) |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted |
1 tablespoon sugar |
1/4 teaspoon fine salt |
filling |
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped |
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature |
2/3 cup sugar |
1/2 cup sour cream |
2 large eggs, room temperature |
glaze |
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 teaspoon light or dark corn syrup |
2 tablespoons sour cream, room temperature |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with foil.
2. For the crust: Process the chocolate wafers in a food processor with the butter, sugar and salt until fine. Evenly press the crust into the prepared dish covering the bottom completely. Bake until the crust sets, about 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, make the filling: Put the chocolate in a medium microwave-safe bowl; heat at 75 percent power until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir, and continue to microwave until completely melted, up to 2 minutes more. (Alternatively put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching, the water, and stir occasionally until melted and smooth.)
4. Blend the cream cheese, sugar, and sour cream together in the food processor until smooth. Scrape down the sides, as needed. Add the eggs and pulse until just incorporated. With the food processor running, pour the chocolate into the wet ingredients and mix until smooth.
5. Pour the filling evenly over the crust. Bake until filling puffs slightly around the edges, but is still a bit wobbly in the center, about 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a rack.
6. For the Glaze: Put the chocolate, butter and corn syrup in microwave safe bowl. Heat glaze in the microwave at 75 percent power until melted, about 2 minutes. Stir the ingredients together until smooth; add the sour cream. Spread glaze evenly over the warm cake . Cool completely, then refrigerate overnight.
7. Cut into small bars or squares. Serve chilled or room temperature.
8. Store cookies covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
