You’ve been PINKED! Thank you for sharing on the Classy Flamingos. http://blog.poinsettiadr.com/2020/02/classy-flamingos-blog-party-89.html
Making this now! I did notice one thing.. it calls for 1/2 c chocolate chips, but in the recipe it says to “stir in melted chocolate”. I take it I am supposed to melt the chips? Thanks!
Caroline,
I’m so sorry that for some reason that line didn’t get added. Yes, you would melt your chocolate chips before adding them. I hope you were able to figure it out and that your cheesecake turned out amazing! Thank you for pointing it out I have updated the recipe accordingly. Have a wonderful weekend!
