Method of Cooking
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Coat a 9" springform pan with nonstick vegetable
spray. Combine crumbs and 1/4 cup of sugar in the pan and stir in the melted butter.
Press mixture into bottom and 1 inch up the sides of the pan. Bake until light brown,
about 7 minutes. In a food processor, beat cream cheese, add 1-2/3 cup sugar and
eggs and mix. Blend in Bailey's and vanilla. Sprinkle half of the chocolate chips over
crust and spoon in filling. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips. Bake cake until
puffed, springy in center and golden brown, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Cool
cake completely. Beat whipping cream, 2 tablespoons sugar and coffee powder until
peaks form. Spread mixture over cooled cake and garnish with chocolate curls.
Serves 12 to 15.
