Creamy and chocolatey, this chocolate cheesecake stands alone, no toppings necessary. Crushed hazelnuts round out the flavor of this delectable chocolate cheesecake.

This is one of the best chocolate cheesecakes I have ever had! It didn't need any topping, it was perfect all on its own. I can't wait to make it again.
