Crust:
16-20 whole chocolate cookies
5 tbsp butter
Filling:
2 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese
2 eggs
1 (14 oz can) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
Topping:
1 chocolate cookie
Chocolate kisses
1 tbsp vanilla extract
Topping:
1 chocolate cookie
Chocolate kisses
Directions:
Preheat oven to 300ยบ F.
Take about 16 to 20 whole chocolate cookies and put them in a ziplock bag to crush. Pour crushed crumbs in medium sized bowl, stir in butter. Scoop crushed cookie mixture into a 9 inch springform pan, spread evenly over bottom. Chill crust to firm, about 20 minutes.
Blend cream cheese at medium speed until fluffy. Add egg, sugar, and vanilla extract. Slowly blend in sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Mix well. Pour cream cheese mixture over crust.
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Cheesecake is done when golden on top or jiggles slightly in center when shaken gently. Turn off oven, leave cheesecake in oven to cool for 1 hour. Remove from oven, lightly run knife around edge and remove springform.
Take one chocolate cookie and use a cheese grater to spread cookie shavings over top of cheesecake. Place chocolate kisses in a design of your choosing over cookie shavings. Then let chill for 2 to 4 hours or overnight until ready to serve.
I absolutely enjoyed making this! I created this recipe from memory of one that I found in a cookbook - when I find it, I will post it. Here are some articles and tips from other websites that may be helpful in baking good cheesecakes:
