I think I found a better solution to this puzzle

http://en.lichess.org/training/13044

Isn't QxD2 better. It might not be a forced mate, but you get to mate quicker.

This is what the program tells you is best:
http://en.lichess.org/YuM4TBNDyd0G -- It takes four (4) moves.

Here are the ways I think my solution would work out better:

http://en.lichess.org/rdTPbrpt8jT1 -- Only two (2) moves.

Or, if white sees that and doesn't take the queen with the bishop, what is there to prevent checkmate with QxC1.

Nevermind. As I was typing this out, I found Bishop kills knight for white.
