This is so decadent and wonderful! I had planned on having only 1 slice, warm, after letting cool for one 1 hour as suggested. Well Juenessa, I then saw your re-heat directions and thought the only way to fairly review this recipe was to try a slice that had been refrigerated and warmed for 15 seconds in the microwave as well :). This cheesecake is so chocolately and creamy, and the crust..... Just delicious! Thanks so much for sharing, this will be a special occasion cheesescake. Nick's Mom
