Peanut Butter Cheesecake



As promised, here is my recipe for Peanut Butter Cheesecake. I don't remember where I got the recipe, but it is delicious. Not too sweet, just right.




Crust
2 cups chocolate graham cracker crumbs
4 tbs melted butter


Mix together and press into the bottom of a 9" springform pan
Bake at 325 for 10 minutes.
Let cool while you mix filling.


Filling
2 8oz bars cream cheese (room temp)
3 eggs plus 3 yolks
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup creamy peanut butter


Blend everything together in a food processor or Kitchen Aide. I actually do this with my hand mixer, but if you do, be sure to get out any lumps of cream cheese.
Pour mixture into the springform pan. Put springform pan in a water bath and bake at 325 for 1 hour. Check after 45 minutes. It will look a little loose in the center but after an hour it is ready to come out. Let cool, and try to refrigerate overnight or at least a few hours.


Topping
1 cup "milk chocolate" chocolate chips
1 cup sour cream
Mix both in saucepan on low heat, stirring constantly until melted and blended. Pour over chilled cheesecake and put back in refrigerater to let topping set. Enjoy!!!
