My Death by Chocolate Cheese Cake

My Death by Chocolate Cheesecake......
I have installed iFood in my phone and came across the recipe and video in iFood. iFood became 1 more application in my phone that I can use during my 'waiting time' and also when accompanying hubby to his badminton game.. Previously only Facebook, but now I have iFood and also foodgawker....yeyy!!!

Back to this recipe, I baked for 2 birthday occasions and Alhamdulillah, they were deliciously great! This is definitely a keeper for cheese and chocolate lover......
