It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers. So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe from my own kitchen or a guest author favorite. It could be a cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes the eye and fancy…which today is Chocolate Lover’s Cheesecake with Quick Chocolate Crumb Crust & Quick Chocolate Drizzle!

This recipe is for the chocolate lovers in all of us. A triple treat of chocolate! The crumb crust and drizzle is great for other recipes, too, so feel free to get creative. As you can imagine, this cheesecake is rich but I’m betting you can find enough people to help you polish it off. 🙂

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

Karen
