I fall in love with this cake! Is it decadent? Sure it is! Can it fail? Never! I couldn't stop eating. It was sooo good and with every bite it get better and better. The crust is really easy to make as well as the filling is. First I thought it might be to much Bailey's in it, but do NOT reduce the amount. While the cake was in the oven a mouthwatering smell was in the air. I placed it in the fridge for one day. For the topping I left out the butter and replaced it by 1 teaspoon sugar to make it a coffee flavored whipped cream. I would suggest to make the topping before serving and to decorate the cake with it just before serving. I used a more bitter-flavored chocolate which adds a nice contrast to the sweetness of the cake. The cake itself was firm but with a delicate moisture. The chcocolate chips add a crunchy moment and were sweet with some bitter cacao notes. Wonderful. I could spend hours and hours on describing this wonderful and decadent cheese cake, but a description is a very weak substitute for an overhelming enjoyment of tasting this cake. Try it and you will fall in love with it, too. There is no rating, which can do this recipe justice! Thanks for this masterpiece.

I made this for a retirement party, and everyone raved. Pan size is not specified, but for this amount of cream cheese I used a 10" springform. I also wrapped the pan in a few layers of aluminum foil, and baked it in a water bath. It took an extra ten minutes to bake; but it turned out perfectly.

Coming from myself who has made a fair amount of cheesecakes over the years, I can honestly say that this one is an amazing cheesecake, and worthy of much more than 5 stars! I made this as written crust and all, only I added in 2 tablespoons whipping cream for a more creamy texture, and baked it in a water bath, then topped it off with chopped Skor toffee bits. I will be pround to serve this wonderful cheesecake to my company tonight, with every bit of credit going to Leslie! Thank you for an outstanding cheesecake recipe....Kitten

OK... This was orgasmic. I seriously have NEVER had a cheesecake like this in my life... WOW... I used the new Bailey's Caramel Irish Cream...it was DEVINE. I served it for my husbands birthday and poor thing didnt have any leftovers to enjoy for later! I also did NOT put the butter in the topping, i used sugar as well. I used about 3 tbsp sugar to make it more sweet. I also used mini chocolate chips... BEST CHEESECAKE I HAVE EVER MADE... turned out flawless. I could keep going, but i'll settle down now

This has to be the most decadent cheesecake I have ever made or tasted! It baked beautifully and the time was right on for my oven. I too left out the butter and added sugar for the whipped topping, topping it with curls made using a Hershey pure chocolate bar. Made for a marvelous looking cheesecake and best of all tastes as good a it looks. The teenager said 'twenty' and I think it is safe to say we all agree! Thank you for sharing this absolutely wonderful cheesecake.

Okay, I made this for a friend and he stole all the leftovers! This is the best cheesecake recipe I have made yet. Very rich. I did not use the butter in the topping recipe but used sugar instead. Wonderful.

Let this cheesecake speak volumes at your next dinner party. Your guests will say that you have truly outdone yourself. It is awesome! I did use nutri whip for the topping ,instead of the whipped cream and just a touch less coffee powder. ( just personal taste) It can't get any better than this. So easy to make and time was perfect Thanks leslie for this great recipe.

Absolutely wonderful! I followed the directions exactly, but had to increase the bake time by 10 minutes. Next time I will make this cheesecake 2 days prior to serving, because it gets even better with time. Thank you for submitting this fantastic recipe!

This is by far the richest cheesecake I've ever tasted. The Irish Cream flavor is really strong and the choc chips give it a nice crunch and balance out the sweetness of the cheese mixture. I followed the instructions exactly except I made the mistake of using a 9" springform pan since the recipe didn't specify size of pan and it was only now after reading the other reviews that I found someone had said to use a 10" pan. The cake puffed up above the pan quite a bit during the baking and I had some cracks around the edges of the cake. But as it cooled and flattened out, the cracks were not very noticeable.
