Chocolate Orange Cheesecake Recipe


Ingredients


CRUST

1 cup chocolate wafer cookies --
1 crumbled
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
3 tbsp butter or margarine --
1 melted

FILLING

32 oz cream cheese -- softened
3/4 cup sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 tbsp orange-flavored liqueur
1/2 tsp orange peel -- grated


Directions

Heat oven to 325 F.

Mix crumbs, cinnamon, and butter. Press onto bottom of 9-inch
springform pan.

Bake 10 minutes.

Increase oven temperature to 350 F.

Beat cream cheese and sugar at medium speed with electric mixer until
well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each
addition. Blend in sour cream and vanilla.

Separate batter into 2 equal parts. Blend chocolate into one part.
Blend liqueur and peel into remaining part. Pour chocolate batter
over crust. Bake 30 minutes.

Reduce oven temperatue to 325 F.

Spoon remaining batter over chocolate layer. Continue baking another
30 minutes. Turn off oven and prop open oven door; remove cheesecake
when oven has cooled. Loosen cake from rim of pan.

I think cheesecake in general is best when chilled over night, but it
is not necessary.

(*) I've just recently found Oreo Cookie crumbs in a box. A great
time saver for the lazy.

The History of Recipes

Experts have tracked the existence of recipes far back into the distant past, in fact as far into history as the Egypt of the Pharoahs, and potentially, even further back. In practice though, sadly, these ancient cookbooks were just simple pictorial instructions for meal preparation.

Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to academics is a collection of stone tablets in Sumerian which recount the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making those who drank it feel blissful and exhilarated.

During Roman times around 25BC a man called Apicius compiled some scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by wealthy roman citizens. In his works, Apicius tells us how the roman meals were separated into starters, entrees and desserts, a very modern way of dining. Aspicius informs us how the Roman cooks used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens like thyme, mint and dill.

In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods, spices and herbs from the East, including spices like parsley and basil. The introduction of these new herbs and spices was responsible for a surge in books on cookery, most of which still exist in academic collections.

By the arrival of the 20th century, recipe books were greatly in demand due to increased literacy, people having increased spare time and disposable income.

Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books.

And that brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this.
