"Hi on behalf of Expert Village my name is Andrea Spano and I'm going to show you how to make several different flavored cheesecakes but one basic cheesecake recipe from my new book Not Just Desserts. So as I said we're going to take a basic cheesecake recipe and make different flavors. Now since we have a plain we're going to make a plain cheesecake so we're going to pour the mixture into the pie pan. See the already prepared pie crust that we used easy and simple you don't have to mess with crackers and crumbling up the crackers. Then I'm going to take my chocolate one what I'm going to do is I'm going to put in the batter in like that and then I'm going to show you how to put a little chocolate in them, we're going to marble it. I have some actual chocolate syrup here I don't want to make it to heavy because you know the cheesecake mixture is not thick so if I put a heavy chocolate on this it's going to sink to the bottom. What I'm going to do is I'm going to kind of drizzle it and when you drizzle it in a zigzag pattern. And this is what is going to help marble it so you see how the chocolate is sinking a little bit into the cheesecake."
