To make crust: Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃).
Mix flour and sugar, and cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolk and cream.
Add to the crumb mixture and stir until moistened.
Oil a 10-inch springform pan.
Pat the mixture into the bottom of the pan.
Bake for 15 minutes. Cool.
Reduce oven temperature to 325℉ (160℃).
To make filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and sugar until fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Beat in the sour cream, flour, vanilla, almond extract and chopped chocolate.
Pour into crust- lined pan and bake for 1 hour or until center moves slightly.
To make topping: Mix sour cream with brown sugar and pour over cheesecake.
Return to oven and bake 15 minutes longer.
Cool completely, then refrigerate overnight.
