No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake

This is one of the easiest cheesecake recipes yet simple and delicious. To add a choco-orange twist to this recipe, use orange juice instead of water and add some finely grated orange peel that you can put on top.

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 envelope (.25 oz.) unflavored gelatin
2/3 cup water
2 pkgs. (8 oz. each) cream cheese, softened
2 cups (12-oz. pkg.) Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels, melted and cooled
1 can (14 oz.) Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped

PREPARATION:

1. Make the crust by mixing the graham cracker crumbs, sugar & butter together in ungreased 9-inch springform pan; press firmly onto bottom.

2. Sprinkle over water in small saucepan; let stand for 1 minute. Warm over low heat, stirring constantly, just until gelatine dissolves. Remove from heat.

3. Beat the cream cheese & melted chocolate in large mixer bowl until fluffy. Gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk. Stir in gelatine mixture; fold in whipped cream. Pour into the prepared pan.

4. Refrigerate for about 3 hours or until set. Run knife around edge of cheesecake; remove side of springform pan.

I am impressed with the idea of orange juice instead of water. It will increase the taste and durability. I will include this as best food recipes and prepare for family.
