In a small bowl, combine the chocolate with the cocoa powder. Add the boiling water and whisk to combine.

Add the sugar, honey, and salt; beat until smooth but not fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, blending after each addition, and then the vanilla extract. With the mixer running, slowly add the chocolate mixture and blend until smooth. Pour over the pre-baked crust. Place in the middle of the oven and bake until the center sets but the edges haven\u2019t yet browned, about 30\u201335 minutes. The top of the cheesecake will still appear shiny, but the edges will have slightly pulled away from the pan.<\/div><\/li><li id=\"wprm-recipe-41971-step-0-2\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\">Cool on a rack to room temperature, then refrigerate for several hours or overnight.

This helps to soften it up a little so it blends more smoothly with the other ingredients. Scrape the bowl frequently while mixing. After each ingredient is added and mixed, stop the mixer and use a spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.<br \/>If all else fails and you notice that the batter seems lumpy after all of the ingredients have been added and mixed together, pass the batter through a fine strainer before pouring it into the pans.<br \/>If you\u2019ve baked the cake for the recommended amount of time and it\u2019s still not set in the middle, turn off the oven and leave it in for an extra 10 to 20 minutes. It won\u2019t overbake, and you can be sure that it\u2019s done.<br \/>This recipe is best made a day ahead to allow for complete cooling. They can also be made up to a month ahead and frozen. Wrap well, first in a layer of plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. To defrost, let them sit in the refrigerator overnight.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\" style=\"height: 20px\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-icon-shortcode wprm-icon-shortcode-separate wprm-align-center wprm-icon-decoration-line\" style=\"font-size: 24px;height: 24px;\"><div class=\"wprm-decoration-line\" style=\"border-color: #e0e0e0\"><\/div><span class=\"wprm-recipe-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg width=\"16px\" height=\"16px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\"><g id=\"Icons\" stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"1\" fill=\"none\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"><g fill=\"#9e9e9e\"><path d=\"M9.0039,16.0079 C5.1419,16.0079 1.9999,12.8659 1.9999,9.0039 C1.9999,5.1419 5.1419,1.9999 9.0039,1.9999 C12.8659,1.9999 16.0079,5.1419 16.0079,9.0039 C16.0079,12.8659 12.8659,16.0079 9.0039,16.0079 M23.6209,22.2069 L16.1439,14.7299 C16.1059,14.6919 16.0579,14.6759 16.0159,14.6449 C17.2599,13.1009 18.0079,11.1409 18.0079,9.0039 C18.0079,4.0309 13.9769,-0.0001 9.0039,-0.0001 C4.0309,-0.0001 -0.0001,4.0309 -0.0001,9.0039 C-0.0001,13.9769 4.0309,18.0079 9.0039,18.0079 C11.1409,18.0079 13.1009,17.2599 14.6449,16.0169 C14.6749,16.0579 14.6919,16.1059 14.7299,16.1439 L22.2069,23.6209 C22.4019,23.8169 22.6579,23.9139 22.9139,23.9139 C23.1699,23.9139 23.4259,23.8169 23.6209,23.6209 C24.0119,23.2309 24.0119,22.5979 23.6209,22.2069\"><\/path><\/g><\/g><\/svg><\/span> <div class=\"wprm-decoration-line\" style=\"border-color: #e0e0e0\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The tang of the goat cheese perfectly balances the richness of chocolate in these crusted bittersweet chocolate cheesecake bars<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":11382,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[51,32,37],"coauthors":[73],"class_list":["post-569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipes","tag-dessert","tag-vegetarian","tag-winter"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.4 (Yoast SEO v24.4) -
