First off, they’re amazing. I first saw them in THIS cookbook (which I am TOTALLY loving) and I knew I had to try them. There are a few steps involved — melting chocolate, making the cheesecake topping, but trust me when I say that they are COMPLETELY worth it. These are the dessert you want to take to the next dinner you are invited to. And everyone will be jealous and wish they could bake as good as you
