Mix the crust ingredients together and press into a greased 8"x8" glass baking dish. Do not prebake the crust.
Beat the cheesecake ingredients together until smooth. Taste and add more sweetener if desired. Pour onto the crust. Sprinkle with chopped pecans and sugar-free chocolate chips and bake at 350* for 35 minutes or until set. Refrigerate to chill completely before serving (overnight is great).
Some caramel sauce would be the perfect topping for this cheesecake! There's an easy caramel sauce recipe in my cookbook.
