Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Not in the pressure cooker but you’ll use the oven for this one to get the crust just right.
In a mixing bowl, mix Oreo cookie crumbs with melted butter until it's all blended. Press this firmly into the bottom of your 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
Beat the softened cream cheese using an electric mixer until it’s smooth as butter. Add in sugar and cornstarch little by little, mix until there’s no lumps.
Crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing real good after each addition. Then stir in vanilla and of course the Baileys Irish Cream — gotta get that flavor right.
Whip your heavy cream until you see stiff peaks, then gently fold it into your cream cheese mix. Pour the whole enchilada over the crust in the pan.
Pop it in the oven for 30 minutes until the edges look set but the center is still a little jiggly. Turn off the oven and let it cool in there for an hour slow release style.
Take it out, cool to room temp, then chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. Last bit is melt your chopped semi-sweet chocolate and drizzle that artistic swirl on top before serving.
Notes
Serve chilled and enjoy the creamy flavor with a hint of Baileys Irish Cream!
