Hello Mary,
I am so happy to find this recipe. It is very similar to a seacret family recipe that I have but misplaced. So I am excited to try yours and see if it also tastes similar. I plan to searve it with fresh strawberries and homemade whipped cream as I did my old recipe. Will let you know how it turns out. Thanks so much for sharing; it is a very unique style of cheese cake.

Hi Mary,

I am in the process of expanding my cake repertiore and the few reviews and feedbacks I read have got me interested in your recipe.
Want you opinion – Do you think this cheesecake filling would be good in an Apple Crumble Cheese Cake?
I would use my own shortbread base recipe and the apples will have a slight hint of ginger….yet to research the crumble but probably will adapt shortbread recipe

Hi Sandy:

Thanks for the lovely comment and for posting my recipe on your Blog. Remember this cheesecake freezes very well. I freeze mine in individual slices, wrap in foil, and thaw in refrigerator when ready to serve.

I made Mary’s light and fluffy cheesecake yesterday and blogged about it today here (http://teacuplane-sandy.blogspot.com/2012/04/light-fluffy-cheesecake.html).

It was easy to make with my Kitchen Aid mixer just as Mary said. Next time I’ll make sure the toothpick is completely clean when I take it out of the oven. The only change I would make is to add some lemon zest in addition to the lemon juice in the recipe and add a tiny bit more sugar to just make it a tiny bit sweeter.

Thanks Mary – good recipe and loved your videos!

Hi Renee:
Thanks for the comment and so happy to hear you had a “work of art”. Did you bake the cheesecake for a total of 2 hrs. and 15 mins. or did you bake it for the 1 hr. and 15 mins. and then left it in the oven with the oven turned off for an additional hour? Your reply will help others who want to try the water bath method.

Mary,

I tried your recipe and I wanted to thank you. . .it was awesome. I read all the blogs on peoples expectations so I got a perfect light & fluffy cheesecake. I also did my own slight variation by placing my cheesecake in a very shallow water bath and by the time I pulled it from the oven 2hrs & 15mins later it was a work of art. I served it to my husbands family with some raspberry preserves and they loved it. Thank you again for your recipe : )
