I made a chocolate cheesecake that gives you a rich earl flavor. The earl’s custard cream layer in the middle brings a very rich flavor, the chocolate layer and the glaze layer also has the scent of the earl so I find it very fragrant and soft to eat. The combination of chocolate and Earl Gray has a luxurious taste and color to match. When pouring glaze on top, I think pouring it all in the middle will be cleaner and easier to coat, instead of spilling over the edge to let the glaze flow on its own. If the coating is too thin, collect the melted glaze, re-melt, mix well, adjust the temperature and pour over again for a neater finish.
