Author's Notes: You may have seen this on the cover of a recent magazine
when you were standing in the grocery line. It makes a very rich, truly
decadent chocolate cheesecake. A chocolate wafer is a crisp chocolate
cookie about three inches in diameter and an eigth of an inch thick. If you
can't find them, you can substitute any kind of dry crunchy
chocolate-flavored cookie. You can make the crust and filling in a food
processor if you have one. It makes it a lot easier.
Difficulty    : moderate. Precision
: measure carefully.
