In a stand mixer, beat softened cream cheese, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
Add vanilla, sour cream, and melted dark chocolate, mixing well.
One at a time, mix in the eggs and yolks.
Pour the cheesecake batter into the cooled crust.
Place the cheesecake in a large roasting pan. Pour boiling water into the pan (about 1 1/2 inches up the sides).
Bake for 1 hour, then turn off the oven, crack the door, and let it cool for another hour in the oven.
Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
Whipped Chocolate Ganache:
Heat the heavy cream just until boiling and pour over chopped chocolate.
Stir until smooth, let cool to room temperature, then whip until fluffy.
Transfer to a piping bag for decoration.

Heat the heavy cream and pour over chopped chocolate.
Stir until smooth and let cool slightly.
Pour over the cold cheesecake and smooth with a spatula. Chill for 20 minutes.
Assembling the Cheesecake:
