Ingredients
Shortbread Crust:
1 1/4 cup gluten free flour blend of your choice
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, cold and cubed
1 egg yolk
Cheesecake:
4 8 ounce packages of cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Crust:
In a food processor pulse all ingredients until they resemble fine crumbs. Press into a greased spring-form pan. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely.
Cheesecake:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl until light. Beat in eggs one at a time, just until blended. Add extract and fold in chips. Pour into your prepared spring-form pan. Place pan into a roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with boiling water halfway up the sides of the spring-form pan. This will help the cheesecake to cook more evenly and prevent cracking. Bake for 55 minutes. Your filling will jiggle much like a bowl of jello. Remove cheesecake from the water bath and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Once chilled, cover and chill overnight.
