Oh man, you guys don't know what you're getting into when you make this recipe. It's out of this world delicious. I was excited to make at least two different things to share with you guys today but that didn't get to happen because I spent a lot of time on this little treat. Totally worth it. Plus there's always tomorrow to make more awesome goodies. A fruit cake is in the future as well as a coconut flavored treat. Get excited!
Cheesecakes are one of my favorite things to make because they are so darn good and the possibilities are endless. Today I'm giving you a chocolate spiced cheesecake topped with coconut whipped cream, cherries, and pomegranate seeds. I stuck with red fruits because I'm trying to kick my Christmas spirit into full gear, so you could use any fruits you want. It's your cheesecake, you make the rules!
