chocolate cheesecake

Creamy cocoa dessert

A chocolate cheesecake is a cheesecake flavored with chocolate, typically incorporating cocoa, melted chocolate, or chocolate chips into the cream cheese filling.

The crust is often made from crushed chocolate cookies rather than graham crackers.

Like standard cheesecake, it's dense and rich, served chilled: She made a chocolate cheesecake for his birthday.
