Large eggs – Providing structure and richness.

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine chocolate cookie crumbs with melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture into the bottom of a springform pan. Bake for about 10 minutes, then let it cool.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the sugar, mix until combined, then incorporate vanilla extract. Add eggs one at a time, ensuring each is mixed in before adding the next. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crust.
In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and heavy cream together until smooth. Cool slightly then pour over the cheesecake filling, spreading evenly and swirling lightly with a knife. Bake for about 60 minutes, or until edges are set but the center has a slight jiggle.
Turn off the oven and crack the door slightly. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about an hour. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve chilled, topped with chocolate shavings and fresh berries.
