{#BundtBakers} Chocolate Chip Cheese Cake

I had this brilliant Idea for this month’s Bundt Bakers’ SPRINKLES theme. Instead of going with a regular cake with colored sprinkles I decided to make a cheese cake ‘sprinkled’ inside with mini chocolate chips. In my head it would come out beautifully. 6 little perfect cheese cakes. Dotted with chips. Little sprinkles of cookie on the top.

The angels would sing. The unicorns would dance.

I would be the Belle of the Ball!

Did. Not. Happen.

Instead I ended up with 6 stuck in the pan, partly collapsed, but great tasting, mini bundts. So much for brilliant ideas and head pictures.

Cue the little Elves of Mischief instead!!

What you need:

1 cup finely chopped chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs.



Filling
3 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 cups sugar
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
1/4 cup whipping cream
1 cup mini chocolate chips

Heat oven to 300. Spray pan and sprinkle the cookie crumbs springly into 1 10 or 12 cup Bundt” Pan. {I used mini-bundt pans and it was enough for 7 small cheesecakes.}
Mix cream cheese, sugar, flour, salt and vanilla until very light and fluffy in a large mixing bowl, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
Add eggs one at a time. Mix on medium-high speed for about two minutes.
Add cream and mix well, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
Stir in chocolate chips. Spoon mixture into prepared pans til they are about 3/4 full.
Bake at 300 for 55 to 65 minutes or until set. Cool upright in pan 30 minutes. Refrigerate 2 hours.

While I used the recipe in the book, you could use your favorite cheese cake recipe and just add in some mini chocolate chips.
