Peanut Butter Cheesecake image

The first time I served this peanut butter cheesecake recipe, my friends all went wild over it. They were surprised when I told them the crust is made of pretzels. The pairing of sweet and salty, creamy and crunchy, plus peanut butter and chocolate, left everyone asking for another slice. -Lois Brooks, Newark, Delaware
