Not a fan of the chocolate crust. I think a graham crackers crust would be better.

Amazing! This cheesecake is everything I've ever wanted in a dessert. It's creamy, chocolatey, and has the perfect amount of sweetness. The crust is also delicious and flaky.

This cheesecake is a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter and fluffier cheesecake.

I'm allergic to chocolate so I had to make a few substitutions, but the cheesecake still turned out great! I used white chocolate chips and a vanilla extract instead of chocolate and vanilla. It was a hit with my family and friends.

This cheesecake is so rich and creamy, it's like a chocolate cloud. The crust is perfectly buttery and crumbly. I will definitely be making this again.

A bit disappointed. The cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste and the crust was a bit soggy. Maybe I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but this one changed my mind. It's light and fluffy, not too dense like some other cheesecakes I've had. And the chocolate flavor is just right.
