Decadent Chocolate Chunk Cheesecake image

Pure Decadence!!! For the true choc-a-holics, My absolute favorite cheesecake recipe. I can't make one of these for gatherings, I go ahead and make two or I don't get any at all. I found this recipe in a Kraft Food and Family Magizine but it can be found on line at both the Kraft and Nabisco web-sites.
