1
This recipe calls for 1 1/2 cup heavy cream in ingredients but only 1 cup in directions. 12 squares of chocolate but only 8 in directions. The instructions for using the other 1/2 cup cream and 4 squares of chocolate are missing but I think it was probably to use for an icing.
2
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x3 springform pan. In bowl, mix chocolate wafer crumbs and butter; firmly press onto bottom of springform pan. Bake crust 12-15 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips or pieces. Let stand several minutes until chocolate pieces are softened then spread evenly over crust. Refrigerate while preparing filling. In large bowl, with mixer at medium speed, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. In small bowl, mix sugar, cornstarch and salt; gradually beat into cream cheese until well

Refrigerate cheesecake at least 6 hours before serving.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
