cream and mix well.
Take 1 cup of the cheesecake mixture and place in a bowl. Add the melted chocolate and stir.

Bake the cheesecake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) and continue baking for 30 more minutes.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let cool completely. Loosen and remove the rim, then chill for at least 3 hours.
