Break the dark chocolate into a heatproof bowl, then set the bowl over barely simmering water to melt. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Beat the cream cheese until soft, then beat in the sour cream, sugar and cornflour. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then fold in the cooled melted chocolate. Pour the mixture into the cake tin and level out.

Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely, then chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
