--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      cups          finely crushed creme-filled chocolate
                        sandwich cookies -- about 24 cookies
   3      tablespoons   butter or margarine -- melted
  24      oz            cream cheese -- softened
  14      oz can        sweetened condensed milk
   3                    eggs
   2      teaspoons     vanilla
   2      oz            unsweetened chocolate -- melted

Preheat oven to 300°F.  Line a 13x9 baking pan with heavy foil; set aside.
Combine crumbs and butter; press firmly on bottom of foil-lined pan.  With
mixer, beat cream cheese in large bowl until fluffy.  Gradually beat in
sweetened condensed milk until smooth.  Add eggs and vanilla; mix well.
Pour half the batter evenly over prepared crust.  Stir melted chocolate
into remaining batter; spoon over vanilla batter.  With table knife or
metal spatula, gently swirl chocolate batter through vanilla batter to
marble. Bake 45-50 minutes or until set.  Cool.  Chill at least 1 hour.
Use foil to lift out of pan.  For hearts, cut with heart-shaped cookied
cutter or with knife, cut around waxed paper heart shape.  Or cut into
bars.  Store leftovers covered in refrigerator.
