I honestly don't understand any negative reviews - this cheesecake recipe is all that you could ask for! The smooth, silky texture is perfect and the rich chocolate flavor decadent. I had to play with the sauce portion - adding a few more melted chocolate chips to thicken it a bit. I ended up thickening it a little too much, so I'm not sure it was necessary. I also substituted cornstarch for the "custard powder," and it worked really well.

this was fun to make & looked & tasted super, I used vanilla jello powder as I had it on hand, instead of the custard powder.. I will make it again next week for our teacher luncheon

I have baked many cheesecakes, so I am not a novice. I selected this recipe mainly for the high reviews. I followed the recipe exactly as written, including buying the custard powder from the specialty food section in my grocery store. It did not turn out well at all. It tasted eggy, and the egg taste overpowered the chocolate taste. I could not eat it. Perhaps the addition of vanilla and more sugar would help? I will not make this recipe again.

This was my first cheesecake attempt. The crust was easy and worked very well. Cheesecake itself seemed to take a little longer to bake, but that might have been my oven. Final result seemed to be loved by everyone, though I can't say for myself because it was all gone before I got to it! :

I followed the recipe to a tee, but the result was horrible. I couldnt even finish my piece. And to be honest it only deserves a half star.

This was the first time ever making cheesecake of any kind and it came out perfectly! What a great recipe! I used dark chocolate cocoa powder in the crust and added about 2 tablespoons of sugar to give it a bit more sweetness. I also used Jello Pudding mix in replace of the custard powder. Works just the same. Excellent cheesecake! This recipe is a keeper!
