Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F.

Measure 1 cup batter into medium bowl. Stir in melted chocolate and food color. Pour into crust. Top with remaining (plain) cheesecake batter. Bake 40 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool completely on wire rack. Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight. Drizzle cheesecake with chocolate or hot fudge dessert topping just before serving, if desired.
