Prepare the Crust:
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed chocolate biscuits and melted butter until well mixed.

Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Divide the cream cheese mixture into two equal parts.
Mix the smooth peanut butter into one half of the mixture until fully combined.
Stir the melted dark chocolate into the other half until well blended.
Assemble and Swirl:
Drop alternating spoonfuls of the peanut butter and chocolate mixtures onto the chilled crust.
Using a knife or a skewer, gently swirl the two mixtures together to create a marbled effect.
Chill:
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until it is set and firm.
Optional Toppings:

Tips:
Use full-fat cream cheese to ensure a rich, smooth texture.
Ensure the peanut butter and chocolate are thoroughly mixed into their respective halves to avoid lumps.
Allow the cheesecake ample time to chill and set for the best results.
