There’s also an Oreo biscuit crust on the bottom and a chocolate sauce on top. Just as well you get to sprinkle on some walnuts, which are the perfect accompaniment for this chocolate bonanza.

They add a taste and texture contrast which cuts through all of that chocolate goodness.

Not much more to say, really, except thanks to the cheesecake guru responsible for this  Cheesecake with Chocolate and Walnuts,  The Baked Been.

Does this cake whet your appetite? Well, why not try this triple choc cheesecake.
