Tips and Tricks for Making This Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Recipe:

If you love a lot of textures in your cheesecake, add in half a cup of crushed chocolate chip cookies to the batter before baking it. To make it easier to make crushed chocolate chip cookies, you can use a food processor.
For a beautiful crust, make sure to press firmly when flattening the crust of this cheesecake. It helps the cheesecake hold its shape when sliced.
When chilling it, cover with aluminum foil to prevent water or any dirt from spoiling your Chocolate Chip Cheesecake.
If you love Oreos, you can use crushed Oreos instead of cake mix for the cheesecake crust.
