  1. To make the brown butter: Cut ¼ cup of butter into pieces. Heat butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Stir the butter or swirl the pan so the butter does not get burnt. Remove from heat when butter turns light brown and gives off a nutty aroma. Set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch and salt together. Cream the remaining ¼ cup butter (at room temp) until smooth and add the sugar, beating for about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract and the brown butter. Gently stir in the flour mixture just until incorporated. Take cookie base and press down into a 10-inch spring form pan that has already been buttered/floured and lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350F for 10 minutes. Set out to cool. To Make the cheese cake: Cream the cheese until soft. Add in the sugar and mix well. Decrease the mixer speed to low and add the flour. Add eggs in one at a time scraping bowl down to make sure that there are no lumps. Stir in the vanilla. The coconuts can be added now; it just get stirred in. Pour batter into the pan. Bake in a water bath at 350F for approx 1½ -2 hours. Let cake sit at room temperature until cool, then chill overnight. To Assemble: Once the cheesecake has chilled overnight. Place some of the topping on the cheesecake and spread it around to cover the top. It may be a little runny that is okay. Pipe chocolate stripes onto the cheesecake, as many as you would like and chill for another hour. It is ready to eat! Lynn Byers McClellan
