Chocolate Cheescake
Crust
1 package chocolate graham crackers (1/3 of a box)
1/2 Tbsp sugar
1/4 cup butter (melted)
Crush the graham crackers and mix in the butter. Press into 9'' pie tin.
Filling
2 packages of cream cheese **room temperature** or else they will not mix with the chocolate
5 oz of melted chocolate (this is just under 1 cup)
1/2 cup+3 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp cocoa powder
2 eggs
Stir chopped chocolate in metal bowl set over saucepan of simmering water until melted and smooth. Remove bowl from over water; cool chocolate until lukewarm but still pourable. Blend cream cheese, sugar, and cocoa powder in processor until smooth. Blend in eggs. Mix in lukewarm chocolate. Pour filling over crust; smooth top. Bake until center is just set and just appears dry, about 1 hour. Cool 5 minutes. Run knife around sides of cake to loosen. Chill overnight.

I just made this and 50 minutes was almost too long. Also, the top looks pretty ugly without that chocolate decoration, it covers up a lot of cracks.
