To make things easier on myself (and to ensure the base was completely cool and set) I baked the "cookie" the day before, letting it hang out in its springform home at room temperature overnight. The cheese mixture featured not only silky couverture chocolate and sour cream, but my favourite "secret ingredient" - silken tofu - as well. The tofu, unlike eggs, doesn't hold air when beaten, making the cheesecake incredibly creamy and dense with a far smaller chance of cracking - even without a water bath! Coupled with the extra step of partially cooling the baked cake in the oven, this dessert was as gorgeous as it was delicious.
The name of this dessert is no lie, either. Each bite of this cake feels almost exactly like eating a dark chocolate Lindor, with the occasional break of chewy cherry tang. It's so intense that a small piece is more than satisfying, and that's probably a good thing given the incredible decadence of the ingredients! According to Mom, the cake freezes well too - she just pulled the last piece out for dessert this week!
