My mother-in-law loved chocolate malts—and cheesecakes, too. Can you guess who passed this recipe on to me? Sometimes, I substitute pretzel crumbs for the graham cracker crumbs. They make a surprisingly good crust! —Anita Moffett, Rewey, Wisconsin

Ingredients

1 cup graham cracker crumbs (about 16 squares)
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
FILLING:
3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup chocolate malted milk powder
4 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: Confectioners' sugar and chocolate curls

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°. Combine the cracker crumbs, sugar and butter. Press onto the bottom of a greased 9-in. springform pan; set aside.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and milk until smooth. Add malt powder; beat well. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Stir in the melted chocolate and vanilla just until blended. Pour over crust. Place pan on a baking sheet.
Bake until center is almost set, 60-65 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight, covering when completely cooled.
Remove sides of pan. Garnish with confectioners' sugar and chocolate curls if desired. Refrigerate leftovers.

Delicious but incredibly rich. Serve very small slices. Everyone loves first few bites, but it becomes overwhelming if too much is eaten at one time. Will go a long way to serve at least 16 people. Leave them wanting more and it will be a hit!

SO DELICIOUS! I baked this for Easter. It was the first time I've ever tried to make cheesecake. It turned out beautifully - no cracking or bubbling. This cheesecake received rave reviews for the whole clan & I was asked by 4 people for the recipe. This recipe made me look like a "top chef"!
