Recipe: Delicious Chocolate Turtle Cheese Cake Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Chocolate Turtle Cheese Cake. A cheesecake reminiscent of those turtle shaped chocolate and caramel nut bars. Garnish with whipped cream, chopped nuts, and maraschino cherries if desired. In a small bowl, combine wafer crumbs and butter.

Cover the top of the cheesecake with a sheet of parchment paper.

I think the chocolate cheesecake would be overwhelming, so I mixed the chocolate with a little bit of the cheescake batter and swirled it throughout the plain batter.

I did the same thing with some of the caramel, so when we cut into the cheesecake, you could see the chocolate and caramel ribbons without overpowering the cheesecake.
