Peanut Butter Cheesecake

[Ruwach10]

I have a "terrible" sweet tooth and "play" with many dessert recipes...here is one (as I have many cheescake recipes, hehe) of my favorite cheesecake recipes........hope anyone who tries it, enjoys it as much as my kids and I do!

Peanut Butter Cheesecake:
2 1/4 lb Cream cheese -- softened
1 1/2 c Sugar
6 Eggs
2 ts Vanilla extract
1 1/2 c Heavy cream
10 oz Semisweet chocolate -- melted
1 c Peanut butter

Preheat oven to 300 F.

1. In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and sugar
   until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in eggs,
   one at a time. Add vanilla, beat until smooth. Add
   heavy cream, beat till well blended.
2. Transfer 1/3 of batter to another bowl and set aside.
   Beat melted chocolate into remaining batter. Pour
   into crust. With mixer on medium speed, beat peanut
   butter into remaining 1/3 batter until thoroughly
   mixed. Carefully spoon peanut butter mixture on top
   of chocolate cheese mixture in pan. Using the long
   handle of a wooden spoon, swirl the two flavors
   together.
3. Bake about 1 hour, or until cheesecake is set around
   edges and puffed but still jiggles slightly in the
   center. Let cake cool 2 hours, then refrigerate until
   well chilled, 8 hrs. or overnight.
4. For a crust, I use Oreo cookie crumbs and make a crust
   using their recipe. I also do not swirl the flavors
   together. I like them layered better.
