The chocolaty cheesecake is so easy to conjure up
If the chocolate cheesecake doesn't taste chocolaty enough for you, you can slice another 100-gram bar of dark chocolate into fine chocolate shavings after resting in the fridge and pour it over the thin layer of cocoa powder.
For cake lovers who don't have much time for chocolate, we recommend another more unusual cheesecake variation – the teardrop cake with a dreamy meringue topping.
