Frosted Chocolate Chip Cheesecake image

"Heavenly" is a good description for this luscious dessert, conveniently made a day ahead. When I don't have a candy bar on hand, I melt ¾ cup of chocolate chips to use in the frosting. Whipped cream can be used in place of the whipped topping.-Arlene Butler, Ogden, Utah

I had some trouble getting the cheesecake out of the pan without breaking it, but other than that, it was a great recipe.
