I loaned my All the Best to someone and am thinking my recipe is in that one since I can't it.... Does anyone have it handy? I have no idea what it's called. I think it starts with a chocolate chip base... has cheesecake with chocolate chips mixed in as the base.

Sound familiar?
 
Got the book right in front of me but no combo like you are describing
