Directions
-
Crush the chocolate cookie wafers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and rolling over them with a pin.
-
In a medium bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
-
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
-
Soften the cream cheese by microwaving it in 30-second intervals until spreadable, then beat it in a large bowl until smooth.
-
Add sugar and cornstarch to the cream cheese and beat on medium speed until fully combined and fluffy.
-
Stir in the vanilla extract and melted semi-sweet chocolate, mixing until the batter is uniform and glossy.
-
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing just until incorporated to avoid adding too much air.
-
Fold in the heavy cream gently until just combined.
-
Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
-
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set before slicing and serving.
