For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips in the crust and topping. Be sure to use full-fat cream cheese for the best texture. Do not overbake the cheesecake. A slight jiggle in the center is ideal. Cooling the cheesecake slowly in the oven prevents cracking. For a neater slice, dip a long, thin knife in hot water and wipe it clean between each cut.

Nov 9, 2023I've made this cheesecake several times, and it's always a hit. I sometimes add a layer of raspberry jam between the filling and the topping for an extra touch of flavor.
