A New Cheesecake

I was asked to bring a dessert to a party Saturday evening.   I wanted something festive and Christmasy, but not a tray of cookies (I haven't finished baking cookies yet this year).  I googled and came up with a recipe from the Betty Crocker site: Double Chocolate Peppermint Cheesecake.   I made a few slight changes to the recipe.  I added 3/4 of a teaspoon of peppermint extract to the batter, and instead of making a ganache for the topping, I used a jar of fudge ice cream topping.  The cheesecake was a hit, and I came home with an empty platter.....
