Ingredients

Crust
  • ¾ cup chopped TWIX® Cookie Bars
  • ¾ cup ground chocolate graham crackers
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
Filling
  • 3 bars (8 oz. each) lowfat cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 12 pieces DOVE® Brand Dark Chocolate
  • ¼ cup lowfat milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons espresso powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Topping
  • 2 pieces DOVE® Brand Milk Chocolate
  • 1 cup whipped topping
Special Utensils
  • 1 8-inch spring form pan
  • Reynolds® Parchment Paper
  • Resealable plastic bag

Directions

  • For crust:
  • 1. Process TWIX® Caramel Cookie Bars with graham cracker crumbs in food processor until finely ground. Blend in butter and sugar. Press mixture around bottom and slightly up the sides of a spring-form pan whose bottom is lined with Reynolds® Parchment Paper. Bake in a preheated 350°F oven until fragrant, about 7-10 minutes.
  • For filling:
  • 1. Beat cream cheese with sugar until smooth, about 3 minutes. Meantime, melt dark chocolate with milk in microwave until smooth, about 30 seconds. Add to cream cheese mixture. Add eggs, one at time, beating well after each addition. Stir in espresso powder and vanilla extract.
  • 2. Pour mixture over crust. Bake in preheated 350°F oven for approximately 30 minutes, reduce heat to 300°F and continue baking until center is almost set, about 20-30 minutes. Remove and cool completely before refrigerating cake for 4 hours.
  • For topping:
  • 1. Before serving, spoon whipped topping into a resealable plastic bag with a 1/2-inch corner snipped off. Pipe rosettes around edge of cake. Using a hand grater, grate DOVE® BrandMilk Chocolate, sprinkling the gratings over whipped topping and cake.
