This recipe was a big hit with everyone who tasted it. When you put peanut butter, chocolate AND cheesecake together, how can you go wrong?! I did end up upping the cream cheese amount to a full 8 oz. and it turned out really well. I'd recommend doing the same.

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed this cheesecake. The cheesecake was light and fluffy, and the peanut butter flavor was not overpowering.

[email protected]I messed up the crust, but the cheesecake itself was still really good. I think I'll try again with a pre-made crust next time.

[email protected]This peanut butter cheesecake was fantastic! The combination of the creamy peanut butter and the tangy cheesecake was perfect. I also loved the graham cracker crust. It was the perfect touch. I will definitely be making this again!
