I wrote out this recipe AGES ago -- don't remember where I found it -- but finally tried it this week. Oh. my. goodness. I HAVE BEEN MISSING OUT!!! Simple and irrisistible! Tastes good the first day, but definitely better a day later; my recommendation would be to make it a day in advance if it's for a special occasion.

Time 55m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup coconut
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
3 semi-sweet chocolate baking squares, melted (I used 3/4 c. chips instead)
2 eggs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup light cream (I used half-and-half)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

For base: Combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly.
Stir in coconut.
Press mixture firmly into 8x8" square cake pan.
For filling: cream together cream cheese, melted chocolate, eggs, flour and sugar until smooth and light.
Gradually add cream, vanilla, and cinammon, mixing until smooth.
Pour over base and bake @ 350F for 25-35 min, or until filling is set.
Cool and refrigerate. Drizzle with more melted semi-sweet chocolate, if desired (approximately 2 squares or 1/3-1/2 cup chips).
Cut into bars or squares and serve!

Tips:

Use a food processor to make the crust. This will ensure that the crust is evenly blended and pressed into the pan.
To make the cheesecake filling, use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. This will help to cream the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from curdling.
Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the cheesecake to set properly.
