Two favorite flavors—coffee and chocolate—combine in this treat from Renee Gastineau of crust Seattle, Washington. "The chocolate crumb crust and sprinkling of mini chips contrast nicely with the creamy coffee filling," she writes.

I made this for a party. I also couldn't find chocolate wafers so I used chocolate graham crackers and they worked great. I baked it 55 minutes and it didn't quite get done in the center. But it tasted awesome and everybody loved it!

I used 2 8 oz packages of cream cheese instead of 3 and only half the sugar in the crust, also only 3/4 cup sugar in the filling. Plenty sweet enough and very delicious, also discovered it taste better the next day!!

I have made this a couple of times. The first time I made it for a party. I couldn't fine wafers, so I used oreos the first time - the crust seemed a little tough, so I tried chocolate graham crackers the second time - worked much better. Everyone loved this cheesecake and wanted more!

This is a really good cheesecake. I couldn't find chocolate wafers so I used oreos for the crust instead. No complaints from my family. I also baked in a water bath.
