Ingredients
1 oz unsweetened chocolate
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp Splenda
1 tsp white Sugar Twin
1/8 tsp liquid sweetener
1/4 cup whole almonds
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp brown Sugar Twin
1 pinch salt
1/2 lb quark
1/2 lb cream cheese
2 tbsp Splenda
2 tbsp white Sugar Twin
3/4 tsp liquid sweetener
3 tbsp bourbon
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
3 large eggs, separated
1 cup whipping cream
Directions
Line an 8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
Place in the freezer.
Chop the chocolate and place in a small heatproof bowl. Place over a pot
of simmering water and let the chocolate melt. Remove from the pot of
water and let cool to room temperature. Cut the 2 tablespoons butter into
small bits and stir into the chocolate until it melts. Stir in the
sweeteners.
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Spread the almonds out on a baking tray
and bake until well browned, almost to the point of being burnt, about 15
minutes. Remove from the oven and cool. Chop coarsely.
In a small frying pan, melt the 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat and
continue melting until it turns a rich and nutty smelling brown. Add the
nuts, brown Sugar Twin and a pinch of salt. Stir into the chocolate.
Spread out into the frozen pan. Place back in the freezer until hardened.
Break into small pieces. Return in the pan to the freezer.
Beat the quark, cream cheese, Splenda and Sugar Twin, liquid sweetener, and
vanilla together until smooth and light. Beat in the egg yolks and
bourbon. Stir in the chocolate almond bits. Beat the cream until stiff
and fold into the cheese mixture. Beat the egg whites to firm peaks and
fold into the cheese mixture. Spread evenly into the frozen pan. Freeze
for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Comments: This cheesecake was inspired by the fondness of a toasted nut
crust on another cheesecake and by wanting something, small, freeze-able
and cheesecake-like. It's not small, but can be cut small and stored in
the freezer for a long time. The alcohol prevents it from freezing rock
hard.
Quark is a light tangy cheese, similar to cream cheese. Grocery stores
carry it in the dairy section in tubs.
If the flavor seems daunting, it can be made plain or you can experiment
with other flavors, such as lemon, lime or orange zest and different
alcohol or perk it up with a few fresh, berries, folded in to the cheese
mixture.
