Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Toss cookie crumbs with butter; press onto bottom and 1-inch (2.5 cm) up the side of 9-inch (2.5 L) springform pan.

Melt 1 cup (250 mL) of the chocolate baking pieces in small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl using an electric mixer set on medium speed until very smooth. Add eggs, milk, espresso powder and cinnamon; beat on low speed until well-blended. Add melted chocolate; beat on medium for 2 minutes. Pour mixture into prepared crust.
