Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake

Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake

A birthday cake I made in 2013 for my dearest brother! Recording this recipe for my own record. 

Love cheesecake with thicker biscuit base so usually I will increase the cookie crumbs proportion. Recipe adapted and altered from "Misstamchiak - Blueberry Cheesecake"
