Two months is basically equivalent to 2 years being gone. Yikes! Anyways here’s a little secret, I actually filmed this video back in February!  I totally forgot I had this in my que, but when watching the video I totally remembered exactly how this chocolate chip cheesecake tasted.  I hope you guys try this recipe and please let me know how it goes for you!

    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.

        Hi Lani! You should probably be able to do it, but not sure on the oven temp and baking time since I haven’t tried it before. Please let me know it goes if ever you try it. Enjoy baking! 🙂
