Made this yesterday for my dad.I made the crust out of whole wheat flour, cocoa powder, xylitol, and butter. I instead of sugar added 1/8 tsp stevia, and left out the cookies. he said its very good, though very dense, maybe dry? ( maybe because no suger?)but the flavor is there for sure. next time I might cut back on the sour cream and add heavy cream. thanks so much for sharing.

Delicious cheesecake! I love making cheesecakes and this one was a winner in our family. I didn't have sour cream, so I used some vanilla low fat yogurt. I put some chocolate syrup on top this time for some extra chocolate as we love chocolate and peanut butter. Made for Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #14
