White chocolate cheesecake



Ingredients
1 (8 oz) package Cream Cheese, room temperature
2/3c Sour Cream
2c White Chocolate Chips  (semi-sweet or bittersweet, depending on your preference)
For the crust:
1/3c Unsalted Butter, melted and cooled


Directions
Stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined.    Grease a shallow 9" cake pan. Use your hands to press the mixture evenly in the bottom of the pan. Bake at 325* for 7 minutes, then remove from the oven and carefully turn over onto a rack to cool completely. The cheesecake will harden as it cools. 
For the crust:
Beat the butter and sugar with a mixer until smooth and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract. Melt the chocolate chips in a double-boiler or heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Add melted chocolate mixture to the batter, along with sour cream and 1/2 c flour. Stir until just combined. Pour batter into pan and bake at 325* for 45 minutes or until set in the center (browning around edges is normal). Cool completely before removing from pan.
