Frozen Coffee Cheesecake - Kahlua Flavored

This Frozen Kahlua Coffee Cheesecake is a variation of a recipe I got from a good friend.  This coffee cheesecake is  divine and yet still effectively low-cal.  I served it during Mother's Day brunch for some on special diets.  This is one of those desserts that looks decadent and oh-so-sinful, but is surprisingly light!

Ingredients  
1 1/4 cups chocolate wafer cookies, (I used about 20 Reduced fat Oreo cookies)

1/4 cup butter, melted

2/3 cup chocolate flavored syrup (50% less sugar)
2 Tablespoon  plus 1 tsp of  Kahlua flavored  brewed coffee (or any coffee)
1 cup light whipping cream, whipped
