CRUSTLESS CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 250 degrees.

• Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Add melted chocolate and mix well.
• Add remaining ingredients and mix until smooth, but do not over beat.
• Pour batter into a 9 inch springform pan that they outside has has been covered in foil. This is so that the water from the water bath will not get into the pan.( my tips for the perfect cheesecake)
• Place pan in a larger pan filled with one inch of water. You are creating a water bath.
• Bake at 250 for 1 hour. Do not open the oven during this time. Then turn oven off, and leave cheesecake in the oven for 1 more hours. Again, do not open the oven during this time. The cheesecake needs to finish cooking while the oven is cooling down.
• Remove cheesecake from the oven and let cool in the pan. This will set up as it cools.
• Refrigerate several hours or overnight, this will help it set up. I prefer my cheesecakes the next day.
• Serve and enjoy!
