chocolate-basque-cheesecake-2

Here's a recipe that combines two of my favorite things—cheesecake and chocolate. I can't believe it took me so long to realize this wonderful combo! It's so easy and quick to make that you truly have no excuses not to whip it up for your friends and family this weekend. To flavor the Basque cheesecake with chocolate, all you need to do is melt chocolate over a double boiler and pour it into the batter. That's it! To enhance the chocolate flavor, I also added cocoa powder and espresso powder, giving the cake a deeper, richer chocolaty taste. Make it a day in advance, as it’s best after resting in the fridge overnight. But hey, if you can't wait, you can enjoy it after it sets for an hour at room temperature post-baking. Enjoy!
