Be careful with the jiggle test... If you’re not used to it, you might overbake. Using a thermometer can be more precise.Hey! To know when your chocolate cheesecake is perfectly done, give it a gentle jiggle. The edges should be set, but the center should still have a slight wobble. Also, it’ll firm up as it cools. Just don’t overbake it!

Ah, chocolate cheesecake—a delightful challenge indeed! 
One foolproof method to ensure it's perfectly done is to gently jiggle the cheesecake—if the center looks set but still slightly jiggly like Jell-O, it's ready to come out of the oven. Another trick is to insert a toothpick or cake tester into the center—it should come out with a few moist crumbs attached, but not completely clean. Also, remember that cheesecakes continue to set as they cool, so don't worry if it seems a tad underdone when you take it out. With a bit of practice, you'll master the art of baking the perfect chocolate cheesecake!
