Crunchy Baked Cinnamon Chocolate Cheesecake. Unfortunately, this lovely cake is really expensive to bake. You may replace one-third of the cream cheese with smooth cottage cheese but it will reduce costs significantly if you can make your own cream cheese. The cake is rich and tasty enough to be served plain, but you may top it with chocolate flakes if you so wish.
