  • Beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Gradually add sugar, then sour cream and vanilla, mixing well. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition.
  • Divide the mixture into three parts. Mix semi-sweet chocolate into one part, white chocolate into another, and milk chocolate into the last.
  • Pour each layer over the cooled crust in order: semi-sweet chocolate, white chocolate, and milk chocolate. Swirl with a knife for a marbled effect.

  • Bake the cheesecake for 60-70 minutes. The edges should be slightly browned; the center should be just set. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door ajar for about an hour.

Fudge Layer
