Very yummy, I added cocoa powder to make it even more chocolatey. I did have some issues with the cake cracking on top so I just covered it with melted chocolate. Also had to cook it a little bit longer than on the recipe.

Yum! We had some mint chips that we needed to use, and I found this recipe. We used 2/3 of the recipe, and it fit nicely in a premade, storebought chocolate graham cracker crust. For those curious, the 2/3 recipe bakes for about forty minutes. With the mint chips, this dessert was super rich, but super delicious!

The best cheese cake I have ever made. Better than what I made in pastry school. I did not have chocolate cookie crumbs so I added cocoa to graham crumbs. Also used vanilla greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Delicious :D

Nice recipe, but with the quantity of ingredients specified, it's more suited to an 8-inch springform pan. To make it for a nine-inch springform, the recipe has to be doubled. I would suggest for the crust using either chocolate graham crackers or the Nabisco Chocolate Wafers instead of the chocolate sandwich cookies. Also, add about 1 tablespoon of sugar to the crust before adding the melted butter. It gives the crust a little sweetness without being cloying. When patting the crust into the pan, you can either use your hands or a flat-bottom glass to press the cookie mixture into the pan, while building it slightly up the wall and using the side of the glass to flatten it a bit.

This was good...but a little too sweet for my taste. Great recipe (quality) though.

I made it and it was really delicious. I used oreo cookies (without the cream) to make the crust, it was yummy!!!.

Very good. I used the exact recipe for the filling. For the crust I used one package of graham crackers with 1/3 cup sugar, 1/3 cup of cocoa powder, and 1/3 cup melted butter. I topped the cheesecake with chocolate ganache made from 1 cup melted semi sweet chips, 3 T of butter, 1 T corn syrup and 1 tsp of vanilla. Sprinkled crushed chocolate chip cookies on top.
