Irresistible Pink Velvet Cheesecake is a Cute Pink Treat

We absolutely adore red velvet cake, so we think this fluffy and light pink velvet cheesecake is an excellent idea. A chocolate cheesecake recipe is made pink with a drop or two of red food coloring, which would be gorgeous served with ripe strawberries or pink icing roses.
	For this cheesecake recipe, you can follow the instructions to make a homemade Oreo pie crust, or you can use a store-bought chocolate crust.
