In a medium bowl mix together cookie crumbs, 3tbsp sugar and melted butter. Press into the bottom of springform pan. 
Melt your chocolate and half and half, stirring until smooth. In a mixing bowl cream 1/2 c sugar and cream cheese until smooth. Add your 3 eggs - one at a time. Blend in vanilla and white chocolate.
