Pralines 'n Cream Cheesecake image

This is a wonderful no-bake cheese cake that always gets raves! A lovely chocolate and white marble-topped cheesecake with a layer of praline. I decorate the top of it with pecans and some of the praline mixture. My sister runs a catering business and she liked this so much it is now one of her best sellers.

I'm not sure how I feel about the combination of pralines and cream in a cheesecake, but I'm intrigued.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out right. It was too dense and the crust was too hard.
