Magnificent...one of the best cheesecakes that I ever made. Made some adjustments to the topping--I made it very thin. Must try if you like chocolate cheesecake.

Excellent except the topping didn't work very well, so the second time I made this I just left it off. It doesn't need it anyway, the cheesecake is great by itself!

Absolutely incredible! My first time making cheesecake and it was delicious and turned out perfectly! I used all milk chocolate chips and I cut the chocolate for the ganache in half and it was perfect. Thank you for submitting it!

Absolutely amazing. This was my first time making a cheesecake, so I followed the advice of others and halved the ingredients for making the ganache, while keeping the whipping cream amount the same. This definitely was a good choice, as it was still pretty thick. It still tasted great even though I couldn't find crushed chocolate cookies, as well, and just bought oreo pieces. I thought they'd just be the cookie, but they had the disgusting frosting as well. This didn't seem to affect the cake flavor too much, though (I tried to pick most of it out), and everyone still loved it!

SO delicious. I've made a few different cheesecakes in the past but never a chocolate one. Our daughter requested that for her 7th birthday and I found this recipe. The reviews convinced me it would be delicious. The only changes I made were to use chocolate graham crackers instead of cookies in the crust and then I skipped the chocolate ganache. The reviews made it clear that it would not be needed. This was a huge hit and the crumb especially was a nice surprise. Often cheesecake crusts taste almost burnt but this had a very sweet and soft texture to it. I would recommend this to anyone.

I made this cheesecake for our 4th of July party and what a hit!. I topped with halved strawberries. The following night I had dreams of eating this cheesecake and awoke to a empty plate at 3am. My 17 year old beat me to the last piece....... Will make again and again and again!

Wonderful!! The only change I made was to use 4 eggs instead of 3. I added the yolks when it said to add the eggs, then whipped up the whites and folded it into the mix at the very end for a lighter texture. Don't skip the cookie crust--it really wraps up the taste and texture of the cheesecake!

Very good. I added more cream to the topping and it was delicious. My family loves it. I didn't bake the crust though, even though I should I have. Still good!

I made this without making any changes to the recipe, and I loved it, as did my entire family. It was dense and moist and creamy--just the way cheesecake should be! None of us found the chocolate topping to be too much, although I can see where it might be too rich for some tastes.

Made it...loved it!! I took the advise of so many others and didn't use as much chocolate chips in the "topping". I garnished my cheesecake with homemade whipped cream and chocolate dipped strawberries (I forgot to take a pic!). It was so delicious. I took it to work and everyone loved it. One coworker even said it was the best chocolate cheesecake her ever had! I will definitely make this again.

This recipe was a great base from which to work. I don't have access to cream cheese (hurdle #1) so I used fromage blanc and mascarpone. I'm cutting back on carbs and sugars (hurdle #2) and used agave syrup instead of sugar and for the crust mixed oatmeal, ground almonds, splenda and butter. I didn't use the topping but otherwise followed instructions and it was DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!! Curbed my chocolate cheesecake craving while sticking to a lower carb diet. Also, since its rich a small 2" square satisfied me.

Awsome cheesecake. I made just a small amount of the topping and drizzled instead of pouring on, and I used the rest to dip strawberrys for the top of cake. Also I used graham cracker crust... but will use cookies next time.

This was a huge hit for the chocolate lovers. My husband was very pleased. I'm not a chocolate lover, but did enjoy this cheesecake. Changes I made: I halved the chocolate for the ganache. I used Ghiradelli dark chocolate. I also topped with homemade strawberry preserves (pureed) and homemade whipping cream.

Outstanding!! As per some of the other reviewers' suggestions, I lightened up the ganache topping by using double the amount of whipping cream the recipe called for. Other than this change, which made for very easy slicing, I made this recipe exactly as written, and it turned out to be the best chocolate cheesecake I've ever tasted, let alone made. My husband is typically not a dessert eater, and he requested two pieces, one right after the other. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!

This one is a winner. I made it healthier with the following changes: chocolate graham crumbs instead of cookie crumbs, Half 'n Half instead of whipping cream, lower fat cream cheese instead of regular, and I reduced the chocolate chips in the topping to 1/2 cup instead of the 1 1/2 cups. And it was still rich, creamy and wonderful! After 10 minutes in the oven my crumb crust was starting to burn. My oven runs a bit hot, so next time I'll only bake it for 5 min.
