I love to adapt and mix recipes, which led to the creation of this creamy treat many years ago. It came to mind immediately when I was planning the orange theme menu. In this case, the distinctive citrus flavor is complemented by chocolate! -Susan West North Grafton, Massachusetts

I was a bit disappointed with this cheesecake. The orange flavor was too strong and the texture was a bit grainy.
