OT - Chocolate cheesecake recipe please

Hello folks,

My birthday is on Saturday. For years my mantra was, "Please don't make
me cook dinner or make a cake on my birthday". Since I cook basically
everything from scratch, I wanted a rest. Several dry and expensive
cakes later, I'm back to making my own. Lemon, chocolate, strawberry,
whatever I fancy.

This year I would like to make a chocolate cheesecake, and I would love
a great, rich cake. Your favourite recipe please? I'll go shopping for
the ingredients tomorrow and make it tomorrow night!


Cheers, Jo in Scotland

Happy Birthday for Saturday.

It is my DH's 80th birthday next Wednesday and I have bought him a
chocolate cake.

I've never created one, Jo, but I do just happen to have the Chocolate
Lover's Cookbook written by Hershey's. If no one comes up with one they
know for sure is wonderful, I'll be happy to offer any of these *chocolate*
cheesecakes recipes:
Chocolate Almond
Vanilla Citrus
Festival
German
Amaretto
Easy
Simple
Black-Eyed Susan
Raspberry Swirl
Grand Finale
Fudge Truffle
Neapolitan (Mr. Esther would call this one Napoleon and we would just
smile.)
No-Bake
Peanut Butter Chip
Praline
Pumpkin ( your own little pumpkin might like this one)
Candy Bar
I gained 15 pounds just typing their list of chocolate cheesecake
recipes. Polly

I would like to try the other recipes mentioned, but it may have to wait
a year. After my birthday and Christmas, I'm going to start to
seriously shift the post-baby weight!

I thought I had saved the recipe for the cheesecake that Jo made but I
didn't. Can someone please repeat the recipe. It sounds really good and easy
enough for me.
Thanks,

Two people in Mark's office are making it, after hearing him talk in
reverent tones about it!
