This cheesecake contains the best of two worlds, Brady's Irish Cream and the taste of good quality chocolate.  The texture of the filling turns out a little like mousse that melts in your mouth..and is a perfect combination with the crunchy chocolate base. It'a sweet that is always popular in our house on High days and Holidays.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
1/3 cup Icing/Confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened good quality cocoa powder
1/4 cup butter
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened good quality cocoa powder
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
3 tbsp good quality grated chocolate
1/4 cup Brady's Irish Cream

Serves 12

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large bowl, mix together the cookie crumbs, confectioners' sugar and 1/3 cup cocoa.

Add melted butter and stir until well mixed. Pat into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.

Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes; set aside. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, grated chocolate, white sugar, 1/4 cup cocoa and flour. Beat at medium speed until well blended and smooth.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Blend in the sour cream and Bradys Irish Cream; mixing on low speed. Pour filling over baked crust.

Bake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C), and continue baking for 60 minutes.

With a knife, loosen cake from rim of pan. Let cool, then remove the rim of pan. Chill before serving.

If your cake cracks, a helpful tip is to dampen a spatula and smooth the top, then sprinkle with some plain chocolate wafer crumbs.

Serve with whipped heavy cream or clotted cream.
