Swirled Pumpkin and Chocolate Cheesecake
Pumpkin and Chocolate Cheesecake would make a better cheesecake if you are tried of normal, ordinary cheesecake flavors. We found the recipe at Dessert Recipes for WomansDay.com. This cheesecake calls for pumpkin, double dose of chocolate with a chocolate wafer crust and melted chocolate on top with any kind of design you like.
I tasted it and was disappointed because I did not like the taste of it. I like pumpkin but I think it was to much pumpkin for me. It was not what I expected. I thought that if it had less pumpkin and regular crust not chocolate crust it might have been better.
What I disliked about it was the it started coming apart at the middle. I thought it also might have been better if we waited till it was completely cold and not warm still. I also thought that if the chocolate would have been more mixed throughout the whole thing instead of the top that would of made the pumpkin not as strong. I also didn't like how there was much crust and that it took a long time and some effort to make it. I also thought that the recipe made to much of it and that I couldn't eat one piece. The only thing that I liked was the look of it all together except for it coming apart at the middle.
Things you could have it with are you could serve it with whipped cream on top. For a drink you could have milk. Even though I didn't like it, this would make an excellent Halloween treat or even Thanksgiving dessert.
I would change the amount of pumpkin that is put into it and more crust or just plain crust. I don't think the pumpkin and chocolate are such a good mix, peanut butter and chocolate are definitely a better combo and I think you could even do peanut butter instead of pumpkin and it would be amazing. I also would cut back on the filling amount I think there was way to much filling.
