This cheesecake was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I would recommend using a semisweet chocolate for the topping if you don't like your desserts too sweet.

This cheesecake was easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a darker chocolate for the topping. Yum!
