Recipe submitted by chefdude7263






Ingredients   (view qty in metric system instead)
Crust:
1 3/4 cup chocolate cookie crumbs
2 tbsp. sugar
1/3 cup melted butter

Filling:
8 ounces chopped German sweet chocolate
2 large eggs
2/3 cup light or dark corn syrup
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
16 ounces cream cheese, room temperature

Topping:
1 1/2 cups sweetened, flaked coconut, lightly toasted
3/4 cup chopped pecans, lightly toasted
1 cup hot fudge ice cream topping

Directions
For Crust:
Stir together the cookie crumbs, sugar and melted butter in a medium bowl until evenly moistened. Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a 9 inch springform pan. Refrigerate crust while preparing filling.

For Filling:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place German chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir chocolate until melted and smooth. Remove the chocolate from over the water. Combine eggs, corn syrup, cream and vanilla in a blender. Blend until smooth. Add cream cheese and melted chocolate and blend until smooth. Pour the filling over the prepared crust. Bake cheesecake about 45 minutes until set. Transfer cheesecake to a rack and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate cheesecake overnight.

For Topping:
Run a warm, damp towel several times around the outside of the springform pan. Carefully remove pan sides. Sprinkle the toasted coconut and pecans over the top of the cheesecake. Melt the hot fudge topping in the microwave or a small saucepan until just pourable. Drizzle the hot fudge topping over the coconut. Refrigerate cheesecake at least 1 hour until fudge topping is set. Slice cheesecake with a warm knife and serve.

Serves 8.
