Appliances: 9"x 3" springform pan, a bowl or a food processor with metal
blade, double boiler, electric mixer with both large & small bowls, baking
sheet.
Crust: Butter springform pan with softened butter Combine graham wafer
crumbs, melted butter, nutmeg & sugar in food processor or bowl & process
until well-mixed.  Press evenly over bottom & 2/3rds up sides of pan. Set
aside.
Filling: Preheat oven to 150C/300 F.  Melt chocolate in double boiler.
Slowly stir in cream until smooth. Remove from heat & let cool slightly. In
large bowl, with electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese until
smooth. Add egg-yolks one at a time, making sure to blend well, & stopping
to scrape down sides of bowl after each addition. Add chocolate mixture,
vanilla & salt. Beat at medium speed for two minutes. Beat egg-whites in a
separate mixing bowl, with electric mixer on low speed, until foamy. Beat
on high until soft, rounded peaks form. Fold egg-whites into chocolate
mixture.  Pour into crust. Place pan on baking sheet & bake at 150 C for 55
minutes.  The cake will rise & the top will wiggle slightly when shaken.
Turn off heat & let cake stand in oven for one hour (It may sink). Remove
cake from oven & place on wire rack in a draft-free place & cool cake to
room temperature.
Topping: Melt chocolate in double boiler. Slowly stir in cream until
mixture is smooth. Stir in flavouring. Pour topping over cool cake. Cover
with cello-wrap & refrigerate overnight. *This cake may be tightly covered
& refrigerated up to three days. *It may be frozen in the pan, tightly
covered with cello-wrap & aluminum-foil. Defrost wrapped cake in
refrigerator overnight.
Three hours before serving, remove cake from refrigerator & remove side of
springform.  Garnish if desired.
Notes on Cake:
1. I have done my best in converting measurements, please forgive any
errors
2. I find it unnecessary to add a garnish to the cake, the rich flavour is
quite satisfying.
NOTE: For fullest flavour, this cake must be served at room temperature.
Serves up to twelve people.
