Contributor: Cheri Hall

The Crust:

1 1/2 cups butter (melted, cooled)
9 Tblsp. cocoa
3 cups flour
1 cup sugar
4 egg yolks
1 tsp. vanilla

The Cake:

5 lbs. cream cheese
12 eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. salt
12 Tbls flour
8 ounces bakers' chocolate
3/4 cup espresso coffee (powdery ground)
4 cups sugar

The Topping:

1 1/2 large bags of chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups kalua

Mix up the crust. Stuff and smash into as many pans as it takes (a bunch of a couple of large lasagna pans.) Soften cream cheese and place in a mixer. Add eggs and milk. Add melted bakers' chocolate, espresso, salt, sugar, vanilla. Add flour (slowly). Blend until smooth. Pour into all those pans. Bake at 250 degrees for two hours. Meanwhile, melt the topping stuff and get stuff ready. After the two hours baking, pour, scoop or spoon (whatever works for you) the topping onto the cake. Bake at 150 degrees for one hour. Cool. Eat it. Freeze it. Give it away! (Freezes very well!)

Contributor: Donna (from a recipe list I am on)

1 1/2 cups gingersnap crumbs
1/2 cups finely chopped pecans
1/3 cup margarine, melted
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
1 cup pumpkin
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Combine crumbs, pecans and margarine, press onto bottom and 1 1/2 inches up the sides of a 9 inch spring form. Bake at 350 degrees F° for 10 minutes.
Combine cream cheese, 1/2 c sugar, vanilla and mix at medium speed with an electric mixer until well blended and smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Reserve 1 cup batter and refrigerate. Add remaining sugar, pumpkin and spices to remaining batter; mix well. Alternately layer pumpkin and cream cheese batters over crust. Cut through batters with knife several times for marble effect. Bake at 350 degrees F° for 55 minutes. Loosen cake from side of pan and cool before removing from pan.
