Crust:
18 Oreo cookies, finely crushed, about 1 1/2 cups, or equivalent crushed, dark chocolate cookies
2 T. butter, melted (might need a little more for plain chocolate cookie crumbs)
Mix cookie crumbs and butter, press firmly into bottom of 9" springform pan.
Filling:
3 pkg (8 oz. each) cream cheese at room temperature
3/4 c. sugar
1 (generous) t. vanilla
six ounces melted semi-sweet chocolate, cooled slightly
3 eggs
Beat together sugar and cream cheese until fluffy; add remaining ingredients and thoroughly combine. Pour over crust. Bake 350 degree oven until center is just barely set, about 1 hour. Allow to cool.
Topping:
1/4 c. melted, seedless raspberry jam
1/2 c. sour cream
Spread melted jam over top of cheese cake; top with sour cream and gently spread evenly over jam.
If desired, add white chocolate shavings
