Yield: 12 servings 

Ingredients:
8 whole gram crackers, crushed
5 T melted unsalted butter
1 ½ cups sugar

½ cup whipping cream
4 tsp coffee powder or instant espresso powder
1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
4-8 oz cream cheese at room temperature
4 large eggs
2 T all-purpose flour
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


Instructions:
Crust:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix crackers, butter
and ¼ cup sugar in medium bowl: press onto bottom
(not sides) of 9” diameter spring form pan with 2
3/4” high sides. Bake crust for 10 minutes.
Cool. Maintain at oven temperature.

Filling:
Combine cream, espresso or coffee powder and
vanilla in small bowl; set aside. Using electric
mixer, beat cream cheese in large bowl until
smooth. Gradually beat in remaining 1 ¼ cup
sugar, then eggs one at a time. Beat in flour.
Stir espresso mixture until powder dissolves; beat
into cream cheese mixture. Stir in chocolate
chips. Poor batter over crust. Bake cake until
edges are puffed and beginning to crack and center

rack 30 minutes; chill cake uncovered until cold
(6 hours). Cover; keep chilled at least 1 day.

Cut around cake to loosen. Release pan sides.
