November 28, 2013This is a fantastic cheesecake recipe, one of the best out there. I've made it twice already, tweaking some things like the amount of sugar (it was too sweet the first time, so I halved it. Others might like it sweet, but I prefer the cheesy taste over the sweetness). I also made a graham cracker crust with finely chopped pecans and it added an amazing dimension to the flavor. I especially loved the texture, firm and smooth and very rich tasting. A+ to Diane for her amazing recipe---MAKE ONE!!
