I love the flavors of a grasshopper drink, and they really shine in this pie. I have never owned a cheesecake pan. All my experience with cheesecakes comes from making pies like this one Besides, pies are such a good size for small families. Chilllilng is not included in the time to make.
Ingredients:
1 (9 inch) chocolate crumb crusts
4 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened (12 ounces altogether)
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup green creme de menthe
2 tablespoons dark creme de cacao
4 (1 ounce) semi-sweet chocolate baking squares (4 ounces altogether)
1/2 cup sour cream, at room temperature
Directions:
1. Have the chocolate crumb crust ready. You may buy this item or make your own.
2. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
3. With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
4. Blend in the sugar, eggs, and liqueurs.
5. Pour into crust and bake for 40 minutes. Cool.
6. While pie is cooling, make the topping. Melt the chocolate in top of a double boiler over low heat or in the microwave according to manufacturer's direction. Blend in the sour cream. Spread over the cooled pie.
7. Refrigerate the pie at least 5 hours before serving.
