INSTANT POT CHOCOLATE CHIP CHEESECAKE



Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cheesecake image

I adapted my favorite cheesecake recipe to work in the Instant Pot. The texture was so incredible, I may never bake it in the oven again! Be sure to use MINI chocolate chips. If you use regular size chips, they will sink to the bottom. -Michele Kusma, Columbus, OH
