3. Set aside 6 cookies for garnish then break up remaining cookies. Stir cookie pieces into cream cheese mixture then pour into crust.
4. Bake 55 to 60 minutes, or until firm. Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, using a spoon, stir together sour cream, cocoa, remaining sugar
and vanilla until well combined. Carefully spread sour cream mixture over top of cheesecake then bake 5 more minutes.
6. Let cool then chill 8 hours or overnight. Cover until ready to serve. When ready to serve, remove from pan to a serving plate and spoon 12 equal-sized dollops of whipped topping on top. Cut the 6 reserved cookies in half and place half a cookie on each dollop of whipped topping. |
