1

Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).

Pulse cookies in food processor until finely crumbed.

5

Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spoon 1 cup of cherry pie filling over batter evenly. Pour remaining batter on top, smoothing the surface.

6

Place springform pan on a cookie sheet and bake in the center of the oven for 1 hour and 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour.

7

Heat 1/2 cup heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming. Remove from heat, add chocolate chips and pinch of salt, stirring until smooth.

8

Remove side of springform pan and place cheesecake on parchment-lined cookie sheet. Pour chocolate glaze over top, allowing excess to drip down sides.

9

Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight before serving. Slice into 16 portions and garnish with remaining cherry pie filling.
