Chocolate Chip Cheesecake

Finally time to make some cheesecake! I love cheesecake so I am thrilled to try a new kind that I've never encountered before. I attempted Chocolate Chip Cheesecake mainly because I had almost every ingredient already on hand (being a broke college student makes you appreciate not having to buy more ingredients).

The ingredients needed are:

1 cup sugar

3 tbs melted butter

2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese

4 eggs

2 tsp vanilla extract

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

*An option for the recipe was to create your own pie crust, but I opted to use a graham cracker pie crust that we had at home. 

The first step was to preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Easy enough. Then it was just a matter of adding all of the ingredients listed above (besides the chocolate chips, they come later!) into a blender and blending it for around a minute. Then I poured the filling into the pie crust and added the chocolate chips to the top of the filling. 

The recipe called for the cheesecake to be cooked for 60 minutes, however in hindsight I'm not sure if that was too long since the cheesecake came out a bit darker than I'm used to when it comes to making cheesecake. It was easy to make though, and took around 2 hours to chill when I put the cheesecake in the refrigerator.
