Steps
  1. Grease the bottom and sides of your springform pan. Cut and place a parchment paper round on the bottom of your push pan / spring form pan
  2. CRUST
  3. Break up the graham crackers into a food processor,...pulse until it resembles course sand. With the processor running drizzle in the melted butter
  4. Dump crumbs into your pan and form a crust up the sides and on the bottom
  5. Place pan in the freezer while making the batter
  6. CHEESECAKE
  7. Place 5 ounces of semi sweet chocolate into a bowl..chips or bars. Use a microwave to melt the chocolate. Start with 1 minute and continue with 30 seconds at a time until completely melted..stir and allow to cool a bit
  8. Place 4 ounces of butterscotch chips into a small bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, stir. Add 2 tablespoons of heavy cream and microwave for 30 seconds. Continue until completely melted and smooth...allow to cool for a bit
  9. In a large bowl mix the cream cheese , brown sugar and white sugar with an electric mixer
  10. Add the heavy whipping cream, vanilla and flour..mix well
  11. Add the whole egg and barely beat it in.
  12. Add the 2 egg yolk and barely beat them in.. Stir and fold to incorporate the yolks
  13. Divide the batter into two medium bowls
  14. Add the melted chocolate and the cocoa to the first bowl and stir to blend.. Mix well
  15. Add the melted butterscotch to the second bowl and stir to blend...Mix well
  16. Pour ¼ cup amounts of each batter in a random pattern until there is only 1 cup of each batter left.
  17. Pour the remaining 1 cup of the butterscotch batter over the whole surface of the cake then dollup the chocolate batter onto the top. Use a toothpick to swirl the flavors together.
  18. Cover your pan with a paper towel held on with a rubber band
  19. Add 1 cup of water to your 6 qt pot. Put the trivet in. Make a foil sling to lower your pan and to remove your pan from the IP
  20. Close and seal your lid
  21. Set the pot to manual 35 minutes. Allow for a 15 minute NPR. Remove pan and set on a cooling rack on your counter for at least 1 hour. Cover the pan with foil and put it in the fridge overnight. Please resist the temptation to eat it now...it's worth the wait.
  22. Use unflavored dental floss or a large knife to cut the cakein
Notes
  • Cheesecake freezes well. I cut mine into slices, put them on a cookies sheet and put them in the freezer for about an hour. Remove them and wrap each slice in plastic wrap. Placed the wrapped slices into a gallon zip bag and remove as much air as possible by using a straw. Whole cheesecakes can also be frozen using the same method
