White Chocolate-Raspberry Cheesecake Bars recipe

Ingredients:
12 Oreto cookies, finely crushed, about 1 c.
2 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted
3 squares Baker's white chocolate, divided
2 pkg. (8 oz. each) cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1/4 c. red raspberry preserves

Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix cookie crumbs and butter; press onto the bottom of a 8 or 9 inch square pan (if doubling the recipe, use a 9x13 pan).  Melt 2 chocolate squares as directed on package.

Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer until well-blended.  Add melted chocolate; mix well.  Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each just until blended.  Pour over crust.

Bake 25-28 minutes, or until center is almost set.  Cool for 5 minutes; spread with preserves.  Melt remaining chocolate square; drizzle over cheescake.  Cool cheesecake completely.  Refrigerate for 4 hours.
