Chocolate-Raspberry Cheese Cake
The subtle flavor of framboise, an exquisite, clear liqueur made from rasp- berries, and the audacious presence of chocolate, make this cheese cake a very special dessert. If desired, orange-flavored liqueur may be substituted for framboise in the recipe below.
Graham Cracker Crust (see below)
3 packages (8-oz size) cream cheese
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 package (8-oz size) semisweet chocolate
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 cup dairy sour cream
1/4 cup strong coffee
1/4 cup framboise
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease 9-inch spring-form cheese cake pan and sprinkle graham cracker crust mixture on bottom, about 1/2 inch deep.
Let cream cheese soften to room temperature; stir in sugar; beat eggs and stir into cheese. In double boiler melt semisweet chocolate pieces with heavy cream. Stir melted chocolate, sour cream, coffee, framboise, and vanilla into cheese mixture. Pour into 9-inch spring-form pan.
Bake 45 minutes (cheese cake will be creamy and a little runny in center). Let cool and chill. To serve, unmold and garnish with chocolate curls.*
Yield: 8 servings.
Graham Cracker Crust:
Combine 2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup sugar, add 1/2 cup melted butter in bowl and mix well.
* Garnish platter with whipped cream, if desired.

Orange- Banana Bread
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
2 beaten eggs
1 cup mashed ripe banana
3 tablespoons Grand Marnier
1/2cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 F. Sift together flour and baking powder, set aside. Cream butter, gradually add sugar, grated lemon and orange rinds, and blend until smooth.
Beat in eggs, mashed banana, and Grand Marnier. Add flour-baking powder mixture a little at a time, stirring in thoroughly.
Fold in chopped walnuts. Grease glass loaf pan, 8x 5x 4. Spoon batter into pan. Bake 45 minutes. Cool before slicing.
Yield: 1 loaf.
ORANGE-BRANDY FRUIT CUPS
Macerated fruit cocktails go well with banana bread and coffee; serve them instead of an after-dinner drink if you like, or as dessert to be followed by Pink Squirrels.
Select fresh fruits in season, peel, remove seeds or cores, and chop into bite- size pieces. Place in large bowl and fill with orange juice to cover fruit.
Add 1/2 cup brandy. Marinate, covered, 24 hours. To serve, drain fruit and place in sherbet glasses or punch cups.
