I tried this recipe last night. The cheese cake came out wonderful, but the granache was a problem. When I stirred in the last ingredients, the texture changed from smoothe to gritty. I poured it over the top anyway, hoping it would taste better than it looked. No such luck. My guests complained that the topping was not sweet enough, and I agreed. I used the 12 packets of splenda called for in the recipe, but it was too bitter to really be bittersweet. This recipe needs some help.
