INSTRUCTIONS
While chocolate melts in double boiler, use a mixer on low speed and blend cheese, sugar and orange or lemon rind until smooth. (Do not use low-fat cheese in this recipe) Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by cream and vanilla. 2. Add a little of the cheese mixture to the warmed chocolate, then stir this mixture into remaining cheese mixture. 3. Spoon mixture into a buttered 9-inch layer cake pan, lined with parchment paper. Set in a pan, and pour in hot water until it reaches halfway up the pan. Bake ina 350 F. oven, adding more water if needed, until set and lightly browned on top, about 1 hour. 4. Remove from oven, let cool, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. 5. To serve, lightly brush each 8 - 12- inch square of phyllo pastry with melted butter. Gently remove each slice of cheesecake from pan. Wrap a sheet of prepared phyllo pastry around each piece, folding until cake is covered with three layers. Trim excess pastry. 6. Brush each dessert with additional melted butter. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 350 R. oven for 10 minutes, or until phyllo begins to brown. Transfer to dessert plates and decorate with fruit purees. From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
