Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake

This cheesecake is easy to make, and easy to do variations on. Use whatever kind of chips you think will taste good. I like it with white chocolate and a graham cracker crust. Tom likes it with peanut butter chips and a graham cracker crust.

Crust: Mix together and press into a 9-10 inch springform pan:
2 c Oreo Crumbs
1/4 c sugar
1/2 c melted butter

Filling:
3 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese
1 c sugar
3 eggs
3/4 tsp vanilla
1/2 c. raspberry chocolate chips, melted

Cream the cream cheese. Add sugar a little at a time. Add eggs one at a time. Add vanilla. Pour 3/4 of the filling into the crust. Combine remaining filling with raspberry chips. Swirl into filling. Bake at 350 until center is set. Add a pan of warm water to oven to create a moist environment for cake to back.
