In another large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and flour until they’re smooth and thoroughly mixed. Add the eggs and egg yolks, and beat the mixture on low until the eggs are just combined. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla, then fold in the chocolate chips and orange zest. Pour the filling into the prepared crust, then place the pan on a baking sheet.

Bake the cheesecake at 325°F for 65 to 75 minutes, or until the center is almost set but still slightly wobbly. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it stand for 5 minutes.

Carefully run a knife around the inside of the pan’s edge to loosen the cheesecake from the sides. Cool the cheesecake for one hour longer and then refrigerate it overnight. Garnish the top with the remaining cookie crumbs before serving.
