Best Loved Chocolate Cheesecake
Description
This is one of my favorite holiday desserts. I try to make something different each year for my family. They enjoy it very much. sometimes instead of drizzling choclate sauce on top, I like to use crushed peppermint candy and sprinkle on top or put christmas colored sprinkles on top too.
