GHIRARDELLI LAYERED CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE WITH GANACHE GLAZE
The show-stopping recipe will wow holiday guests with two layers of cheesecake, a mirror-like glazed topping, and a crunchy chocolate crust. Pro tip: For the creamiest cheesecake, don't overmix the batter, especially after adding the eggs. Over-beating the eggs can cause the cheesecake to souffle, fall, and crack. Garnish with seasonal fruit such as sugared cranberries, strawberries, etc.

Steps:
- Prepare the Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Stir together cookie crumbs, butter, and sugar in a medium bowl until well blended. Press mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray.
- Bake in preheated oven 10 minutes. Cool crust completely in pan on a wire rack, about 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
- Prepare the Cheesecake: Beat cream cheese with a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add sugar and flour, beating until smooth. Add eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, beating on low speed just until yellow disappears after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
- Divide batter into 2 equal portions in separate medium bowls. Pour 1 portion into prepared crust; spread evenly.
- Place Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Baking Chips in a small microwaveable bowl. Microwave on medium (50% power) until melted and smooth, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds.
- Stir together coffee liqueur and espresso granules in a small bowl until espresso dissolves; stir mixture into remaining bowl of cheesecake batter. Stir melted bittersweet chocolate into coffee batter until blended.
- Gently pour over plain cheesecake batter in prepared crust, and spread evenly. Pan will be very full. Place springform pan on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Bake at 325 degrees F until center is almost set but center still jiggles slightly when pan is prodded, 1 hour and 5 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove to a wire rack and cool completely, about 2 hours.
- Cover pan loosely with aluminum foil and chill 8 to 12 hours. Gently run a knife or offset spatula around outer edge of cheesecake to loosen from sides of pan. Remove sides of pan.
- Prepare the Topping: About 1 hour before serving, bring cream and corn syrup just to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium. Place Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Chips in a small heatproof bowl; pour cream-syrup mixture over chocolate chips. Let stand 1 minute. Whisk gently until smooth. Cool slightly, about 15 minutes.
- Pour chocolate mixture over top of cheesecake, and gently spread to edge of crust. Chill until set, about 30 minutes. Garnish if desired.

CHOCOLATE CHIP CHEESECAKE WITH CHOCOLATE GLAZE TOPPING
Steps:
- HEAT oven to 350 degrees F.
- BEAT cream cheese in medium bowl with electric mixer until fluffy; gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Add egg and vanilla; mix well.
- TOSS chocolate chips with flour; stir into cream cheese mixture. Pour into crust.
- Bake 35 minutes or until center springs back when lightly touched. Cool and top with Chocolate Glaze and chocolate curls (optional). Serve chilled.
- CHOCOLATE GLAZE:
- MELT chocolate chips with cream in small heavy saucepan; cook and stir until thickened and smooth. Immediately spread over cheesecake.
- To prevent chocolate chips from floating down to bottom of pie, remove cheesecake from oven after 5 to 10 minutes, sprinkle chocolate chips over pie; continue to bake for remaining baking time. (Be careful when handling cheesecake, pie pan will be very hot.)
- *To make chocolate shavings, start with a good quality chocolate in block form. Using vegetable or potato peeler, hold chocolate with paper towel; pass vegetable peeler over narrowest side of chocolate block. The chocolate will curl up like wood shavings. Store in covered container in refrigerator until needed.
