The different shades of decadent chocolate make this cheesecake a picture-perfect dessert. It's one of the easiest cheesecakes we've ever made. The texture is creamy, rich and so chocolaty. This is fabulous enough to make for a special occasion but easy enough for any time. A truly decadent treat for the chocolate and cheesecake lover.
