ok so my boyfriend is a red velvet cake, cheesecake and chocolate lover so i gave this a try. it was my first cheese cake attempt ever. he and the children loved it. i reccomend adding one egg to the crust and would also reccomend one more pack of cream cheese as well as a quarter cup of whipping cream. it was very dense however its a great recipe for chocolate lovers only! its very rich and whipped topping is not necessary but if u fall into these catagorys make it
