My husband loves cheesecake, and this favorite is from a cookbook I bought long ago for $1 at a yard sale. We love raspberries and chocolate—what a match! —Mickey Turner, Grants Pass, Oregon

Great tasting chocolate raspberry cheesecake. The crust was too oily, should only use the cookie crumbs and the cookie filling. The cream filling was a bit too soft, next time will try without the bath method.

This was easy to prepare and I really liked it! It was the first time I had ever made a cheesecake.... but it turned out fine! My chocolate/cheesecake batter marble layer didn't marble either but it still tasted good.I didn't let the cream cheese soften enough before I mixed it, so I put the batter in the Vita-Mix blender to remove the lumps and the texture was still great! Light and fluffy :)Next time for the chocolate topping/ganache I would use milk-chocolate chips or just skip them altogether.... it really didn't seem to need any more chocolate! Great recipe!

This has become one of my favorite cheesecake recipes. It was very creamy, and it had a delicious chocolate raspberry flavor. The texture was perfect. For the crust, any time a recipe calls for Oreos, I always scrape out the white filling. Your crust won't be so oily if you do this, but I did have to melt more butter though. I think it might've been 4 Tbsp of melted butter. Like many others, the chocolate mixture didn't marble well. There was just too much of it, but it's okay. I will definitely add this to my repertoire of cheesecake recipes. Highly recommend this one.

Delicious! The best cheesecake I've ever made. I served this to 16 guests for Easter and everyone loved it. It didn't marble, but it didn't matter. The topping makes it really elegant.

I thought the crust was too oily and next time will use just Oreo crumbs and not the cookies. Other than that it was wonderful. Mine didn't look like the picture, either, and instead had more of just a chocolate layer on top. Very good!

Terrific but I would suggest a few things - 9" pan was too small (and I double checked my pan) so my cheesecake compleley filled the pan and did not "marble". I also will use a different crust recipe. The sandwich cookies were really tough to press into the pan (too sticky) and I had to crush more to fill the bottom. But I decided against the ganache topping and it was still wonderful! ps - I didn't use the water bath, just baked until the center was set and left in the oven with the door closed for 3 hours, turned out fine.

This was delicious! I made it with milk chocolate chips rather than semi-sweet and everyone loved it.

The recipe is excellent, and I will definitely make this again. My only problem was with making the chocolate cheesecake part look like the picture. I ended up just making a layer and not worrying about too much.
