I really made a mess of this recipe. I forgot to put aside a cup of mixture and put the spices in the whole cheesecake. To make amends, I then put cocoa powder in the cup I took out and swirled the chocolate mix instead. Thankfully it still came out delicious and even my hubby who hates cheesecakes loved this one!
